Is it true or false that balanced forces can change an object's direction?

It is false. Change of direction is acceleration, which can only be produced by unbalanced forces.


How do you know that the forces on a windmill are unbalanced?

When the forces on a windmill are unbalanced, the blades may slow down or speed up, or they may change direction. When the blades are rotating at a constant velocity (speed and direction), then the forces are balanced.


Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are called unbalanced forces?

False forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are called balanced forces. Unbalanced forces acting on an object cause the object to accelerate.


When an object is acted on by unbalanced forces, the object will?

Move (or change direction/speed if it was already moving).


How do balanced and unbalanced forces compare?

unbalanced same balanced doesn't = 0 push or pull netforce = 0 change an have direction doesn't change motion objects motion


How do unbalanced forces affect an objects motion?

forces push and pull on an object making the object move in the direction of the force. the stronger force would overcome the lesser force, causing the object's motion to go in the direction of the stronger force (newton's 2nd law).alsoif forces are balanced there s no acceleration hence there is no motion.....thus if forces are unbalanced the motion is in the same direction as the resultant force (the greater force acting on an object)When the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, The one with more mass will pull on the other one, causing a change in motion.


Which cause change in motion balanced forces or unbalanced forces?

unbalanced foeces


Can forces change an objects direction?

If I am reading your question correctly, you want to now if balanced forces can change the direction an object is traveling. The answer is no. Balanced forces always produce no net change, hence the term "balanced". You need an unbalanced force to change the direction of an object, or to set an object in motion from a standstill.


How do unbalanced forces affect objects?

An unbalanced force will cause acceleration in the direction of the force.


What three ways do unbalanced forces cause an object to change its motion?

speed, slow down or change direction or some combination thereof.


An unbalanced force will not change an objects motion?

If the forces on an object are unbalanced then the objects motion will change. It will start accelerating in the direction of the resultant force. Only objects that have balanced forces will remain in the same motion (stationary or moving at a constant speed).


What does unbalanced force do to an object?

The forces cause the object to move in the direction of the net force. If there are two unbalanced forces in opposite directions, the object will go in the direction of the stronger force.
