what your talking about is terminal velocity, which is when the downward force of gravity (Fg)equals the upward force of drag (Fd). This causes the net force on the object to be zero, resulting in an acceleration of zero

What happens to a moving object if no other force acts on it?
The law of ineritia dictates that it will keep on going its course if no force acts upon it. Of course this is only vaild in a static frame of reference, if the observer is accelerating at the same time then the object even know nothing is acting upon it will according to the observer accelerate without an apparent force acting on it. But to sum up in layman's term no it won't do anything.
What three things keep the planets in their orbit?
A planet is kept in its orbit because the Sun's gravitational attraction on it produces acceleration towards the Sun, which exactly balances the force, by Newton's laws of motion. An object that is travelling along in a curved path is accelerating to the side, according to Newton's theory, and in a stable orbit this can go on for ever without the energy ever diminishing.
Forces acting on an object that is not moving are described as this?
It can be said that the net force applied on the object is zero or that the object is in translational equilibrium. Keep in mind that these terms can also be applied if the object is moving at a constant velocity.
Why fungi do not grow easily on food that is keep dry?
They cannot trap moisture.
What keeps a falling object from accelerating?
Assuming the object is in free fall the only thing that can keep the object from accelerating in the opposing force of kinetic friction upward by air (known as air resistance).
Why is centriugal force fictional?
From the point of view of an outside observer, no centrifugal force is necessary to "explain" anything; the natural tendency of an object is to go ahead in a straight line. A centripetal force is required to keep an object moving in a circle; no counterforce is required to "balance" things, since the object is in fact accelerating. The centrifugal force is introduced for the rotating frame of reference - i.e., from the point of view of somebody who is participating in the rotational movement.
What is the definition of save an object?
keep the object
To keep a sled accelerating downhill the force of gravity must be greater than the normal force?
"friction"
1985 olds V 6 stalls when you floor it and dies what may be the problem?
try accelerating slowly. if it doesnt stall, you may have to keep accelerating slowly[until someone else can diagnose tyhe problem]
Why is force centripetal?
Centripetal force is not very difficult to understand, yet most people make it seem overly complex. Centripetal force is an inward force applied to an object that is in circular motion (uniform circular motion). This inward force is what centripetally accelerates an object, which means the object is accelerating around the circle. DO NOT EVER BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A CENTRIFUGAL FORCE. THIS FORCE IS FAKE, BECAUSE THERE IS NO FORCE THAT IS PUSHING OUT ON OBJECT TRAVELING IN UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION!!!!!!!!!!!!! All it means is that there is no centripetal force to stop an object from moving out of the circle. An example is a car. If you are sitting in a car, when you go around a bend at a pretty decent speed, you seem to lean in the opposite direction of the turn. this is actually false. you are travelling in a straight line due to your inertia. When the car turns, you continue in that straight line, obviously you don't fly out of the car, because the car applies an inward force on you when you hit the side to keep you centripetally accelerating. Friction is one of the few forces that can stop an object from centripetally accelerating. when i mentioned a straight line due to inertia, I am talking about the velocity of the centripetally accelerating object. This velocity vector is tangent to the circlular path of the object. So that means that if you wanted to whirl a rope over your head like a cowboy and throw a rock at something, you would have to let go of the rope when it was perpendicular to the target. target------------------{((()))}------------------ | | ------- | rock O
What is the link between velocity and acceleration?
I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but.....An object that is accelerating simply means that that object's velocity is changing. It can be increasing (positive accel.) or decreasing (negative accel.). If the acceleration is zero, that means the velocity is constant.(Keep in mind that these are all vector quantities, so they will have directions as well as magnitudes, and the positive/negative may be reversed.)
Why do you have to exert extra force to get a heavy object moving and then have to keep applying force to keep it moving at constant velocity?
the heavier and the bigger the object the more force you need to use to keep it moving . the less weight and the smaller an object is the less force you need to use to keep it moving. it always depends on the weight of the object and the size of the object.
Is force always neede to keep an object moving?
Force is never needed to keep an object moving unless there is an opposite force trying to slow the object.

Is it true that to keep an object moving a force must be apllied?
No, it is untrue. No force is required to keep a moving object moving.
