Either one of the following observations tells you that an object is accelerating:
-- Three points in the object's path are not in a straight line.
-- The distance the object travels in a period of time is not the same as the
distance it travels in another period of the same duration.

What does not happen to a non moving object in equilibrium?
it does not accelerate
What happens when the longer a force acts on moving object?
If a force is being applied to a moving object, it will change its velocity (it will accelerate) appropriately.
What force can cause an object at rest to move or it can accelerate an object that is already moving?
Any force.
How can an object accelerate if it is moving at a constant speed?
by adding more force
When does a moving object accelerate?
An object accelerates when all the forces acting on it don't add up to zero.
How the forces affects the object at rest?
An unbalanced force will always make an object accelerate. If the object is at rest, it will start moving.
How the unbalanced force affects the object at rest?
An unbalanced force will always make an object accelerate. If the object is at rest, it will start moving.
What happens when a unbalanced force is applied to moving object?
The object is accelerated in the direction of the net (or resultant) force.
Why do moving body accelerate?
Not all moving objects accelerate. In general, an object will accelerate if there is a net force acting on it. For a ball in the air, this might be gravitation + air resistance; for a moving car (once you turn the engine off) it might be the force of friction; etc.
How do forces acting on an object?
If forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate or decelerate. If forces on an object are balanced, the object will stay still or keep moving with the same velocity.
How force act on an object?
If forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate or decelerate. If forces on an object are balanced, the object will stay still or keep moving with the same velocity.
What will happen to a moving object that is not acted on by an unbalanced force?
It will not accelerate. That means that its velocity won't change.
