The motion of an object is determined according to Newton's laws of motion. In particular, acceleration is proportional to force. If you change the force, you change the acceleration. There are many details beyond that, but that is the simple answer to a very broad question.
NOTE:
Neither the force nor a change in it has any effect on the motion of an object
unless the force happens to be acting on the object.

How does a force affect an object?
A force can make a still object move. It can change its shape or size. It can change the way in which it is moving.
How does adding and removing of force affect a moving object and an object at rest?
For an object in motion, a force applied in the direction of the movement of the object would propel it further along that direction. The force should be equal or more than the momentum of the object. If a force in applied against the moving object in a direction opposite to the movement of the object, the velocity of the moving object is hampered. How much this decrease in velocity would occur would depend on the amount of the opposing force. If a sufficiently large force in an opposing direction is applied, it can even stop the object. If the force is not along or opposite the movement of the object, the force can change the direction of the object. If the force that was causing the movement of the object is removed, the object slows down, until it finally stops. For an object at rest, a sufficient amount of force can set the object in motion.
How does the strength of a force affect the movement of an object?
Force is directly proportional to acceleration, so the greater the force, the greater the acceleration.
How does the centripetal force cause an object to change in motion?
Any net force will change an object's velocity. In the case of a centripetal force, it changes the direction of the movement, and therefore its velocity.
What do you call a force that acts on an object but does not cause any movement of the object?
A force that acts on an object, but does not cause any movement (specifically, a change in velocity) of the object, is (by Newton's law) equally and opposite balanced by other forces.
Any time there is no change in the movement of an object what is true of the force pairs acting on the object?
They are equal in magnitude.
How does force affect speed of an object?
The relationship is given by Newton's Second Law. Briefly, a net force (an unbalanced force) will accelerate the object, that is, it will change its velocity.
What is internal and external forces?
An internal force is a force acted upon by an object to force another object's movement internally. An external force is a force exerted on an object based on the objects position and force applied on the object which causes the opposite forces change in motion.
How do force affect object?
A force is a push, pull, or dragging on an object that affects its motion. ... The action from a force can cause an object to accelerate, to decelerate, to stop or to change direction.
How does zero net force affect an objects state of motion?
If there is zero net force on an object, the object will not accelerate. (It's velocity will not change.)
How does friction affect movement of object?
Friction provides a force, and therefore an acceleration, in the opposite direction of motion.
How do forces change a movement of an object?
inertia affects it. A force can move anything depending on its strength. Inertia states that an object at rest wants to stay at rest, and an object in motion wants to stay in motion. They alter the courses and movement of objects that have less force than the force trying to move the object
