How does mass of the object impact upon travel of a second object?
Which of Newtons Laws accounts for this?

Homework Equations

Travel is a very distracting term to use here - too easy to lose and/or misinterpret the truth.
further travel just compounds the problem.

Last year I traveled to Tasmania. Later in the year I did some further travel. Pretty sure that is not what you were talking about though.

Look up a text - even WIKIPEDIA - and read about Newton's three laws and have another go at this question when you have read about them.
