How does net force affect acceleration?
If net force acting on a mass decreases, the acceleration of the object decreases. But if the mass of an object were to decrease while a constant net force acted on it, its acceleration would INcrease. If the net force on the object AND the object's mass both decrease, the object's acceleration could either increase OR decrease. We'd need the actual numbers in order to calculate how it would turn out.
How does a zero net force affect an object's motion?
Zero net force has no effect on an object's motion whatsoever.
How does friction affect the net force on an object?
Friction usually reduces the net force and the resulting acceleration.
What is the net force acting if an object is moving along a surface with a constant acceleration?
If the object is moving along a horizontal surface with a constant acceleration,then the net vertical force on it is zero, and the net horizontal force on it is(the pushing force) minus (any kinetic friction force where it rubs the surface).The numerical value of that net force is(the acceleration) times (the object's mass).
2nd law of newton?
The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased. To put it as it is often put: Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma): the net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.
What 2 things affect the acceleration of an object?
-- the object's mass -- the net force acting on it
How does net force affect acceleration?
If net force acting on a mass decreases, the acceleration of the object decreases. But if the mass of an object were to decrease while a constant net force acted on it, its acceleration would INcrease.

We'd need the actual numbers in order to calculate how it would turn out.
If a non zero net force acts on an object what does the object do?
-- When the net force on an object is not zero, the object undergoes accelerated motion.-- The magnitude of the acceleration is the ratio of the net force to the object's mass.-- The direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of the net force.
How does a zero net force affect an object's motion?
Zero net force has no effect on an object's motion whatsoever.
How does friction affect the net force on an object?
Friction usually reduces the net force and the resulting acceleration.
What will an object act upon by a net force do?
We have an important law in physics called: NET force = m * a m = mass a = acceleration A net force will produce an acceleration on an object, and that acceleration will change the object's velocity.
What is the net force of an object that is sitting still?
Since force is a function of acceleration and an object at rest has zero acceleration, then then net force is zero as well.
When the net force on an object is zero?
Then there will be no acceleration of the object.
How are acceleration and force the same?
Force and acceleration are NOT the same. If you apply a net force to an object, it causes the object to accelerate. The amount of acceleration depends on the force and the mass of the object. Force = mass x acceleration.
How do unbalanced forces affect an objects velocity?
When the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object undergoes acceleration. Its direction is the direction of the net effective force, and its magnitude is the magnitude of the net effective force divided by the object's mass.
If the net force on an object is zero than the object has?
No acceleration
How is force releated in acceleration?
Force is Equal to the product of Mass and Acceleration. This though is the Net Force that is acting on the Mass of an object. Refer to Newtons Second Law of Motion: 2.) The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
