In theory, an imbalance of forces on a mass will cause an accelerating (or decelrating) force. In practice there are other quantifiables, for instance the requirement to overcome inertia, friction, air resistance etc

Which cause change in motion balanced forces or unbalanced forces?

unbalanced foeces


What does a unbalanced force cause that a balanced force doesnt?

There is no such thing as "a balanced force" or "a unbalanced force". Only a group of two or more forces can be balanced or unbalanced. An unbalanced group of forces acting on an object causes accelerated motion of the object. A balanced group of forces doesn't.


What do unbalanced forces always cause in motion?

more motion :O


What forces can cause change in motion?

unbalanced force


What is a charge in motion called?

These forces that cause a change in motion are called Unbalanced Forces, therefore forces that never cause a change in motion and stay the same are called Balanced Forces.


What law of motion says that unbalanced forces cause accleration?

Newton's 2nd law of motion.


Is change in anobjet's motion anunbalanced force?

Not exactly. 'Motion' or 'change of motion' are not force. But the only way to change an object's motion is to cause the group of forces on it to be unbalanced. If the object's motion is changing, then you can be sure that the group of forces acting on it is unbalanced.


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.


How do balance forces acting on an object affect its motion?

When the forces acting on an object are balanced, they cancel each other out and the result is no change in its motion.Balanced forces have no effect on motion. Unbalanced forces cause acceleration.


How do unbalanced forces affect motion?

-- An unbalanced group of forces on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the net force. -- If an object is not moving, then the group of forces on it must be balanced, else it would be accelerated.


What causes a change in motion a balanced or unbalanced force?

Forces on a moving object are balanced only when the object is moving at a constant velocity. Remember, acceleration is a force and a constant velocity is equivalent to zero acceleration. Think of a ping pong ball that you drop from a few meters above the ground: After a short acceleration the ball reaches "terminal velocity" when the air resistance balances the gravitational acceleration. After this, the forces on the ball are balanced (although it is moving, the velocity - speed & direction - of the ball is not changing)


Is a car balanced or unbalanced when turninng while moving at a constant speed?

The forces acting on the car are unbalanced because it is accelerating by changing direction, even though it has constant speed. Unbalanced forces cause acceleration (change in motion). That is what Newton's first law of motion is about.
