If two objects with different masses are pushing each other, which exerts the greater force?

A. The object with the greater mass exerts the greater force on the smaller object because the larger object has more inertia.

B. It is impossible to tell which object exerts the greater force unless we know which object accelerates.

C. The object with the smaller mass exerts the greater force on the larger object because it requires more force to make the larger object move.

D. They both exert the same amount of force on each other regardless of their mass, but in opposite directions.

If two objects with different masses are pushing each other, which exerts the greater force?

The object with the greater mass exerts the greater force on the smaller object because the larger object has more inertia.

Explanation:

potential energy is directly proportional to height.

more height = more potential energy.

greatest increase in height = greatest increase in potential energy

where are the points with the greatest increase in height ?

has to be c-e or d-e .

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.
