An example is if someone is pushing on a chair to the RIGHT with 10 Newtons of force and someone on the other side of the chair is pushing on the same chair to the LEFT with 5 Newtons of force. The total force is 5 Newtons to the RIGHT

There is no such thing as "an unbalanced force". A single force by itself is not

balanced or unbalanced.

A group of two or more forces is balanced if all the individual forces in the group

add up to zero. Example: You push a shopping cart forward, while I push it backward.

A group of two or more forces is unbalanced if all the individual forces in the group

don't add up to zero. Example: You push a shopping cart forward while a mouse

pushes it backward.

Newton's Third Law states that, for every force, there is an equal and opposite force.

This argues the point that there is no such thing as an unbalanced force.

Imagine a mass that you drop from an airplane. The forces that act upon it in the instance of dropping are simply the gravitational attraction of the earth. Hence we have unbalanced forces that make the mass accelerate from 0 velocity to a higher one. It wil continue to build up speed until it hits the ground.

(we are omitting air resistance)

A force that brings an object into motion is called unbalanced force. This happens when force acting on a body in different directions are not equal or balanced. An example of unbalanced force is- when a person pushes i.e applies force on a heavy box, it does not move because of the frictional force acting in the opposite direction of force applied. If the box is pushed still harder, the pushing force becomes bigger than frictional force and the box starts moving. Here, pushing force and frictional force are unequal or unbalanced.

A seesaw experience an unbalanced force in the direction it is moving. This is because?æ of unbalanced force due to weight of a body that is placed on it.

Is an unbalanced desk an example of an unbalanced force?

No. There is no such thing as a single force that is balanced or unbalanced, and a desk is not a force anyway.


Give one example of an unbalanced force?

unbalanced forces cause acceleration, an object in freefall has gravity as an unbalanced force.

What is a force that pulls on an object and causes acceleration if not balanced by an opposing force?

Generally it is just called an unbalanced force. A net force is the result of one or more unbalanced forces and results in an acceleration. An example of an unbalanced force is the force of gravity.(which is the answer to a typical quiz question)


Give example of of an object that is experiencing an unbalanced force?

A book sliding off a table is an example of an object experiencing an unbalanced force. The force of gravity pulling the book downward is greater than the frictional force between the book and the table, causing it to accelerate in the direction of the force.


What is an example of a unbalanced force causing to change in motion?

friction


What objects continues to move when an unbalanced force is removed?

Give an example of an unbalanced force causing a change in motion?

friction :)


What is one example of an object that continues to move when an unbalanced force is removed?

A ball rolling along a flat surface will continue to move even after the force pushing it has been removed. This is due to its inertia or tendency to stay in motion until acted upon by another force.


When do you say that the force is unbalanced?

When an object accelerates, the force is unbalanced.
