Answer:

The acceleration of the refrigerator together with the objects decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the mass of the refrigerator is increased by stacking more masses (objects) on it,

and the force applied remains constant, then we know from

F = ma

where

F is the applied force

m is the total mass of the refrigerator and the objects

a is the acceleration of the masses.

If F is constant, and m is increased, the acceleration will decrease
