Question

question 11 1 pts if an objects mass is decreasing while a constant force is applied to the object, the acceleration increases. decreases. remains the same. question 12 1 pts if an apple experiences a constant net force, it will have a constant acceleration. position. velocity. speed. more than one of the above

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second - law

Newton's second - law is $F = ma$, where $F$ is force, $m$ is mass, and $a$ is acceleration. We can rewrite it as $a=\frac{F}{m}$.

Step2: Analyze Question 11

Given that $F$ is constant and $m$ is decreasing. Since $a=\frac{F}{m}$, when $F$ is fixed and $m$ gets smaller, the value of $a$ increases.

Step3: Analyze Question 12

Again, from $F = ma$, if $F$ is constant, then $a=\frac{F}{m}$ is also constant (assuming $m$ is constant for the apple). Position changes with time when there is acceleration, velocity changes with time due to acceleration, and speed is the magnitude of velocity which also changes with time when there is acceleration. So, when there is a constant net - force, there is a constant acceleration.

Answer:

Question 11: increases.
Question 12: acceleration.
