This is basically described by Newton's Second Law: F=ma (force = mass x acceleration). Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity. Solving for acceleration: a=F/m. In other words, if there is more force, there will be more acceleration; on the other hand, if an object has more mass, there will be less acceleration.
The force that acts to oppose motion is called friction. Friction occurs when two surfaces rub against each other, creating resistance that makes it harder for objects to move.
Friction
Mainly friction.
The resistance to motion created by two objects moving against each other is called friction. Friction occurs when the surfaces of the two objects come into contact and oppose the relative motion between them, causing heat and wear.
The force that acts to resist motion between two surfaces is called friction. Friction occurs when the surfaces of two objects are in contact with each other and oppose the relative motion between them.

Friction or Resistance
Relative motion
Friction slows down the motion of objects.
Friction opposes motion or, more correctly, relative motion between two bodies in contact.Motion.
The force that acts against objects sliding against each other is friction. Friction is the resistance that occurs when two surfaces come into contact and oppose the motion of each other. It acts in the opposite direction to the direction of motion.
Friction always opposes the motion of objects by creating a force that acts in the opposite direction of the object's motion. This force resists the movement of the object, causing it to slow down or stop. Though friction can sometimes be reduced, it will always be present to some degree and affect the motion of objects.
