Correct Answer: Due to smaller mass (inertia)
Subject: 2025
Explanation: <b>Key Fact</b><br>According to Newton's Second Law of Motion ($F = ma$), acceleration is inversely proportional to mass ($a = F/m$). A smaller car has less mass, so a given force produces greater acceleration.<br><br><b>Additional Info</b><br>Topic: Newton's Laws of Motion.<br><br><b>Why the other options are wrong</b><br>Option A: Velocity is the result of acceleration, not the inherent cause.<br>Option B: Momentum is $p = mv$, not the cause of easier acceleration.<br>Option C: Correct.<br>Option D: Friction resists motion.<br><br><b>Exam Trick</b><br>$a = F/m$ → smaller mass means greater acceleration.<br><br><b>Final Answer</b><br>Option C — Due to smaller mass (inertia).
