Use the "force applied" slider to set the force applied on the elephant to somewhere in the middle of the range. after you have set the "force applied" slider, do not change it again for this question. how would the acceleration change if the mass of the elephant were increased?

the acceleration decrease

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that force is proportional to mass and acceleration

F = m a

The applied force creates an acceleration in the elephant a = F / m. If the mass of the elephant increases m2> m, the expression takes the form a = F / m2. With the denominator is greater the acceleration should decrease by the same factor that increases the mass
