Question

A student is performing an investigation. She applies the same amount of force to a soccer ball and a volleyball and observes their acceleration. She records her data in the table. Ball Mass (kilograms) Force (newtons) Acceleration (meters/second2) soccer ball 0.45 50 111 volleyball 0.28 50 178 The student claims that a bowling ball with a mass of 0.5 kg will accelerate faster than the volleyball and the soccer ball. Which statement BEST evaluates the student's claim? A. The student's claim is correct because acceleration decreases as mass increases. B. The student's claim is correct because acceleration increases as mass increases. C. The student's claim is incorrect because acceleration decreases as mass increases. D. The student's claim is incorrect because acceleration increases as mass increases.

what is the correct answer out of all listed?

The correct answer is D. The student's claim is incorrect because acceleration decreases as mass increases. This is based on Newton's second law of motion, which states that acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when force is constant. As mass increases, the acceleration decreases.

Answer 2

is that 100000000000000% correct?
