Question

the heavier an object, the slower its motion when in motion. a true b false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

According to Newton's second law \(F = ma\) (where \(F\) is force, \(m\) is mass, and \(a\) is acceleration). If the force acting on an object is constant, \(a=\frac{F}{m}\). But the motion (velocity) of an object depends on initial velocity, acceleration and time (\(v = v_0+at\)). The mass (heaviness) alone does not determine the slowness of motion. For example, in free - fall (neglecting air resistance), all objects have the same acceleration \(g\) near the Earth's surface regardless of their mass.

Answer:

B. False
