Question

If an object's mass is decreasing while a constant force is applied to the object, would its acceleration decrease, increase, or remain the same?

Answer 1

Answer:

increase

Explanation:

Answer 2

We need to find what change takes place to the acceleration of the object in the given situation.

The acceleration of the object would increase.

m = Mass of the object

a = Acceleration of the object

Force is given by

$F=ma$

Acceleration would be

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

It is given that force is constant so

$a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}$

This means that acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.

Here, the mass is decreasing so the acceleration will increase.
