Question

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when an unbalanced force acts on it?

Answer 1

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be balance force  if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be unbalanced force if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to Newton second law of motion , acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

     F=ma

     a=$\frac{F}{m}$

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.
