The table gives the resultant force acting on two objects and the acceleration produced.
Table: The resultant force acting on two objects and the acceleration each one is given
| Object | Resultant force / N | Acceleration / m/s2\text{m/s}^2m/s2 |
|---|---|---|
| X | 240 | 4.0 |
| Y | 150 | 3.0 |
Which statement is correct?
Object X has the smaller inertial mass, because a larger force acts on it
Object Y has the larger inertial mass, because it has a lower acceleration
The objects have the same inertial mass, because both values increased
Object X has the larger inertial mass, because its force to acceleration ratio is larger
