    The best experiment will be to apply the same amount of force to a ball, cylinder, cube and pyramid each of the same mass.

    Answer: Option D

    Explanation:

    Based on Newton first law, the motion of any object is dependent on the force acting on it. So, the force is directly proportionate to the mass and acceleration exerted by the object as stated by Newton's second law of motion. Thus, if you need to perform an experiment to check the influence of shape on the motion of the objects, you should keep the two-variable related to generating force as constant.

    And those two variables as mass and acceleration. Thus, the same amount of force can be applied to objects of different shape like ball cylinder, cube and pyramid but the masses of these objects should be kept constant. Then only the change in motion can be correlated to the shape of the object and not to the mass.
