Question
what happened to the net force in order to cause an object to increase in acceleration? (1 point) remained the same decreased increased became zero
According to Newton's second law of motion, \(F = ma\) (where \(F\) is the net force, \(m\) is the mass of the object, and \(a\) is the acceleration). If the mass \(m\) of the object remains constant (assuming no change in mass, which is a common assumption in basic force - acceleration problems), then \(F\) and \(a\) are directly proportional. So, if we want to increase the acceleration \(a\) of an object, and \(m\) is constant, the net force \(F\) must increase.
