Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A greater applied force is required to move an object with a greater mass than one with a smaller mass.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Momentum is related to Newton’s first law. A greater applied force is required to move an object with a greater mass than one with a smaller mass.

Detailed explanation-2: -A net force on an object changes its motion – the greater the net force, the greater the acceleration.

Detailed explanation-3: -So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled.

Detailed explanation-4: -The greater an object’s mass, the greater its gravitational force. As we know that the Newton’s Second Law also says that the greater the mass of the object being accelerated, the greater the amount of force needed to Accelerate the object.
