Question

Four movers pick up boxes. Each box has a different mass, and each mover applies a different amount of force to lift the box. Which box will have the greatest acceleration?(1 point)

Responses

a 10 kg box lifted with 40 N of force
a 10 kg box lifted with 40 N of force

a 20 kg box lifted with 40 N of force
a 20 kg box lifted with 40 N of force

a 10 kg box lifted with 60 N of force
a 10 kg box lifted with 60 N of force

a 20 kg box lifted with 60 N of force

Answer 1

The acceleration of an object depends on the force applied to it and its mass. The greater the force relative to the mass of the object, the greater the acceleration. Therefore, the box with the greatest acceleration would be the 10 kg box lifted with 60 N of force.
