If an object is moving away from you and left alone what happens?

If an object is moving away from you and there are no forces acting on it,then it continues moving in a straight line at constant speed.

What will happen to an object moving at a constant speed if no outside forces act on it?

It's not necessary to specify that the object is moving at a constant speed. Any object with no outside forces acting on it does that. It also continues moving in a straight line.

Consider a man throwing a ball forward from the front of a moving train If the train is moving at 50 km hour and the man throws the ball at 5 km hour what is the apparent speed to the thrower?

Relative to the thrower, the ball appears to be moving at 5 km/h.

false--unless an outside force acts upon it


What happens to an object when the forces are balenced and it's moving?

Then the result will be the same as if NO forces act on the object (since the sum of the forces is zero). The object will continue moving in a straight line, at constant speed.


What is moving?

Moving directly straight either horizontally or vertically. As if walking on a straight line.
