During study group mary and ben were arguing about a question on the practice test. the question said "true or false: the amount of mass of an object determines the amount of force that is needed to accelerate it." mary said the answer was false, but ben thinks it is true. who is right? justify your answer.

a. mary is correct because according to newton's first law it is unbalanced forces that cause an object to accelerate.

b. ben is correct. according to newton's 3rd law force is determined by mass.

c. ben is correct. according to newton's 2nd law of motion objects with more mass require more force to accelerate.

d. mary is correct because it is the type of force that determines the acceleration, not the mass.
