A steel ball rolls down a ramp and collides with a marble, as in the video. The marble is slightly smaller and quite a bit less massive than the ball.
• If they both experience the same force, which will have the greater acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the smaller ball will have the faster acceleration to compensate for the mass of the bigger ball.

• If the forces were exerted during identical time intervals, which would have the greater change in velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
the smaller ball, if the smaller ball accelerates faster over the same time period, then its change in velocity will be greater.
