The lesser the mass, the greater the acceleration for the given value of force. Why does this happen?

Physics

Newtons law states F=ma
so F/m=a
in addition it makes logical sense the lighter an object the easier it is to accelerate its velocity form 0 to some quantity

The difference in the composition of the terrestrial planets and the gas giants can be explained by the different condensation
miv72 [106K]
The inner planets are usually rocky because the gravitational pull is stronger closer to the star or in this case the sun. The dust and rocky particles that are left over after a super nova or in a nebula will tend to orbit closer to a proto-star when a solar system is in its early days. In our solar system these planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Gases are less dense and will be less affected by the pull of gravity because rocky particles have more mass. The outer planets are gas giants formed from clouds of gas that would be further out in the spinning disk around a proto-star.

As the army approached the bridge into the city, the commander told them to break step. He did not want the soldiers to march in
Aleks [24]

At a definite point, the bridge would begin oscillating to the matching rhythm as that of the marching footsteps. This oscillation would touch a determined peak when the bridge can no longer tolerate its own power and later collapses. So, soldiers are systematic to break their steps while passing a bridge.

You breathe in more oxygen than you breathe out. And you breathe out more carbon dioxide than you breathe in.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

B. chemical only.

Explanation:

In the process of respiration which is a chemical process where organic compound is released. In this process exergonic reaction takes place in which compound changes into different ones.

Following are the two types of respiration:-

1] Aerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration requirement of oxygen is more and energy released is more.

2] Anaerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration oxygen requirement is less and energy released is also less.

A proton moves from a location where V = 87 V to a spot where V = -40 V. (a) What is the change in the proton's kinetic energy?
Art [367]

Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field.  This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.

If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then  they can not move to higher potential  if any  external force does work on the system.

In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons  can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).
