If the mass of a body and the force acting on it are both doubled, what happens to the acceleration ?

As known the formula of force $F=m\times a$ or $a=\frac{F}{m}$

Here $F\rightarrow$ Force

$m\rightarrow$ mass of the body

$a\rightarrow$ acceleration

If the mass and force are doubled, then acceleration $a=\frac{2F}{2m}=\frac{F}{m}$

Thus, the acceleration remains unchanged even after doubling the mass and force.
