Two objects, A and B, are acted on by the same net force. Object A accelerates at 3 m/s2, and object B accelerates at 5 m/s2. What is a possible reason for the acceleration of object B beinggreater than the acceleration of object A?A.

Object A and object B are acted by same net force . Acceleration of object A ( a1 ) = 3 m/s 2 Acceleration of object B ( a2 ) = 5 m/s 2 Let mass of object A and object B are M1 respectively. Net force on object of mass ' m ' moving with acceleration ' a ' is given as :- Fnet =ma Net force on both object A and B is same ∴ M1a1=M2a2 ⇒ M1×3=M2×5 ⇒M1M2=53 ∴ M1>M2We have, M1>M2 Hence, option (c) is correct. (c) Object of mass A was greater than the object of mass B.
