What happens to the acceleration of a system when the net applied force increases but the mass of the system does not change?
Use
As a constant force F is applied, ma must remain constant.
However, since m increases, a should decrease to maintain ma constant.
Useagain.
Mass is constant, so, F/a must be constant.
As F increases, a should increase as well to keep F/a constant.
