What can you say about the forces acting on a stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are balanced. If you were to add up all the forces (taking the directions into account, you would get a total of 0. There are always forces acting on a object, such as gravity, so you cannot say that there are no forces acting on it. You can say that the forces are balanced.
What is the sum of all forces acting on an object?
Net force.
Is it true or false that unbalancing the forces acting on an object gives you net force?
It is true that if the forces on an object are not balanced then there will be a non-zero net force on that object.
What is determined by combining forces?
this is the net resultant force acting on the object, taking into account all of the forces acting, their strength and direction.
How is net force on an object determined?
Add the different forces together to find the net force. For example, if you have a force of -5N acting on an object and another force of 8N acting on that object, the net force is 3 N.
If balanced forces are acting on an object it will seem as if a net force is acting on the object?
If the forces are balanced this means that there is no net force acting
Force acting on stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are:PushPullGravity
What is the net force on an object that is acted on by balanced forces?
If all forces acting on the object are balanced (equal), the net force acting on the object is zero.
What is the combined total of all forces acting on an object?
that is called the net force; it is a vector sum of all the forces acting on it
What do you get when you combine all the forces acting upon an object?
The net force acting on the object.
What are the between balanced force and unbalanced force?
An object with balanced forces acting on it is still. An object with unbalanced forces acting on them moves at an non constant velocity. It is possible for an object to have balanced forces acting on it and yet move in a vacuum.
If the net force On an an object is zero what do you know about all of the forces acting on the object?
Net force is a combination of all the foces acting on an object.If two forces are acting in the same direction you add the forces to calculate the net force
What are forces called that have a net force?
The overall forces acting on an object.
when all of the forces on an object cancel one another out the forces are?
When the 'net' force on an object is zero, then either there are no forces acting on it, or else all the forces acting on it are 'balanced', and they have the same effect on it as if there were no force.
Which term describes the vector sum of the forces acting on a body?
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object.
What is the difference between net force and normal force?
Net force is the combination of all the forces acting on an object. When the forces are balanced, the net force is zero (because the forces cancel each other out.) When the forces are unbalanced, the net force will be a number.
Is it possible for an object not to be in motion and still have a force acting on it?
Yes, the object can have equal forces acting in opposite directions: 5N ->[]<- 5N The object will have forces acting upon it, but will not move.
