Question

amirah and antwone were debating about facts about newtons 2nd law. here is what was said......(get your cameras ready)... antwone: bro...im telling you. if you add mass to an object and use the same force, its acceleration will be slower! a\mirah: bruh, you slow! im also telling you that the acceleration is faster before adding more mass to that object! correct? a amirah was correct. b they both gave correct facts. c mr. d was correct. d neither one gave correct facts. e antwone was correct.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

According to Newton's second law \(F = ma\) (where \(F\) is force, \(m\) is mass, and \(a\) is acceleration), when \(F\) is constant (\(F=\text{constant}\)), we can express \(a=\frac{F}{m}\). This shows an inverse - relationship between \(a\) and \(m\). If \(m\) increases (mass is added to the object), then \(a\) (acceleration) decreases. Antwone's statement "If you add mass to an object and use the same force, it's acceleration will be slower" is in line with \(a=\frac{F}{m}\) (as \(m\) increases, \(a\) decreases). A'Mirah's statement is incorrect as it contradicts the inverse - relationship in Newton's second law.

Answer:

E. Antwone was correct.
