If you push on a solid object how does that object move. does it move instantaneously with the force or does the force propagate a wave within the object that causes the other end to move through spa?

dont know , but recent discovery is even gravity takes time to act over distance

What occurs when an object spins on its axis?
When an object spins on an axis it causes rotation!!
What is the transfer of energy that causes an object to move in the direction of the force called?
The transfer of energy that causes an object to move in the direction of the force is called work.
What is the force acting on an object that causes change?
Unbalanced forces causes object's position to change, in which is known as acceleration. According to Newton's first law, an object will always be in the same position regardless if it is moving or not, unless an unbalanced force happens on it.
How does air resistance affect the acceleration of falling objects?
As a falling object accelerates through air, its speed increases and air resistance increases. While gravity pulls the object down, we find that air resistance is trying to limit the object's speed. Air resistance reduces the acceleration of a falling object. It would accelerate faster if it was falling in a vacuum.
When you cannot see through a substance is called?
If you can't see through an object clearly it is an opaque object.
What causes motion of an object?
Applied force to an object causes motion.
What force causes an object to fall once it is released?
Gravity causes an object to fall to Earth.
When a hot object touches a cool object the particles in the hot object cause the particles in the cool object to?
It causes it to vibrate which causes it to heat up
What does a unbalenced force on an object do?
causes the object to fall...
What causes an object to fall from a height?
Gravity causes an object to fall from a height. Without gravity, the object would just be floating in the air.
Both sound waves and light waves travel through an opaque object?
Light waves cannot travel through an opaque object.Sound waves intensity is reduced drastically when it crosses an opaque object.Sound waves cannot propagate without a medium whereas light can travel without a medium of propagation.
You do on an object when you exert a force on the object that causes the object to move some distance?
You do work
How do you move each and every particle of a particular object to a new location instantly at the same time thus transforming this object into another?
Breath in it out. You would instantaneously turn oxygen into carbon dioxide. Also, Water can be made into steam. :)
Where does the sneeze start in the human body?
something that is inside the nasal canal causes irritation to the nerves and causes the canal to want to expel it. The way the the nasal expels the object is through an excessive force of outward air from the lungs through the nasal canal.
What force causes a bike to slow down when you stop pedalling?
Friction causes the bike to slow down.
What is a force called that causes an object to object to move in a circle is called?
A force that causes an object to move in a circle is a central force, or a centripetal force.
Energy is done when a force causes an object to move?
Work is done when force causes an object to move and capacity of doing work is called energy So, energy is required and consumed when force causes an object to move
