What is required to set an object into motion?

A force.


What is required to set an object in motion?

Use the force young pad-wan! An external force is required to start an object in motion from rest.

How are forces related to motion?

Balanced force can keep object in constant uniform motion only when moved. Unbalanced force can change state of motion of the object. If the object is at rest by a balanced force or unbalanced it can be set into motion or vice versa.


What does Frictional forces?

Frictional force resists movement. In order to set an object into motion (or accelerate an already moving object), the force of friction must be overcome.


What two things can set a still object in motion?

Only force can. But there must be a million things that can produce the force, including everything from golf clubs to rocket engines.


How does adding and removing of force affect a moving object and an object at rest?

For an object in motion, a force applied in the direction of the movement of the object would propel it further along that direction. The force should be equal or more than the momentum of the object. If a force in applied against the moving object in a direction opposite to the movement of the object, the velocity of the moving object is hampered. How much this decrease in velocity would occur would depend on the amount of the opposing force. If a sufficiently large force in an opposing direction is applied, it can even stop the object. If the force is not along or opposite the movement of the object, the force can change the direction of the object. If the force that was causing the movement of the object is removed, the object slows down, until it finally stops. For an object at rest, a sufficient amount of force can set the object in motion.


What force are needed to set objects in?

Motion. This is Newton's first law of motion which says: I. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. This basically means that an object will not move unless an outside force, such as kicking a ball, is applied. If you need more on that you can go to this website: http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/lect/history/newton3laws.html.


What force causes a force to go around in a circle?

if you mean "force that causes an object to go in a circle", that is called Centrifugal force.an object in motion stays in motion correct? Centrifugal force is where an object is traveling trough space and wants to move in a straight line, and an outside force doesn't allow the object to move outside of a set boundary by pulling on it. like gravity keeping the Earth in orbit around the Sun, or the Moon around the Earth


What is newton's first law of physics?

Newton's first law of motion is often stated as An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in he same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
