The mass of an object can be determined using the slope of an acceleration versus force graph. In this context, when acceleration (X-axis) is plotted against force (Y-axis), the mass is calculated as the ratio of force to acceleration, represented mathematically as mass = force / acceleration. This relationship is derived from Newton's second law of motion, F = ma, confirming that the slope of the graph directly corresponds to the mass of the object.
