Does a propelled object continue increasing in speed infinitely in a vacuum?

For a start, it is not possible to propel it indefinitely. Where should the energy come from?
On the other hand, there is a speed limit in the Universe, called the "speed of light". An object can approach the speed of light, but never quite reach it, much lass pass that speed.

Tendency for a stationary object to remain at rest or for a moving object to continue moving?
ammonia....'_'
What are the condtions for an object to stay at restto keep moving at constant velocity or to move with increasing velocity?
The Condition of Equilibrium, Force equal zero, is the condition of an object at rest or moving at constant velocity. Non-Equilibrium Condition, Force is not zero, is the condition for an object to move with increasing velocity.
A day without friction?
Impossible. Any moving object would become infinitely faster, and gravity would be infinitely stronger. Friction keeps the tectonic plates from moving any faster. This would be impossible to imagine, even for the most scientific minds.
What gives an object inertia for newtons laws?
Nothing gives an object inertia. Inertia is not a force. It is just the tendency of an object to continue in its motion if there is no force acting upon it.
An object is traveling in a straight line in space no forces are acting on the object based on this evidence what will happen to the objects motion?
Nothing will happen to the object's motion, it will continue along its path.
What is a fired thrown or otherwise propelled object?
a projectile?
Definition for a line in math?
A geometrical object that is straight, infinitely long and infinitely thin.
An object propelled into the air but has no power to keep itself in the air?
A projectile.
How is velocity of a falling object related to the length of time the object falls?
Velocity increases but not infinitely.
Increasing the speed of an object does not affect that object's what?
mass
Why does weaker force of gravity dominate over electrical forces for astronomical object?
It's true that gravity is comparatively weak. But it makes up for its weakness by extending its influence out infinitely far. The gravity weakens the farther you get from an object, but theoretically, you can continue to calculate the gravitational force no matter how far you are from the object you are considering.
What happens when a rocket stops pushing a person in space?
The momentum (given by the property of inertia) makes whatever was propelled by the rocket continue at the same velocity as before, until another force (like running into a planet) affects that object.
What is an object with no thickness that extends infinitely in 2 directions called?
A line.
Is it true that an object that is propelled vertically normally moves at a constant pace?
Statement is FALSE A++sucks:P
How does increasing the speed of an object change its momentums?
Increasing the speed of an object will increase its momentum as well (momentum=mass*velocity).
What effect does increasing the speed of an object have on the potential energy of the object?
None.
Can an object continue to move if there is no force on it in the direction in which its moving?
Yes. If no force acts on an object, it will continue moving indefinitely.
