it will move the object that the force i pushing it to
Example:
Force---->Object------>
the object is moved in the direction it is being pushed or pulled by the force

An object will move at a constant speed in a straight line until?
Acted on by a force.
What does unbalanced force do to an object?
The forces cause the object to move in the direction of the net force. If there are two unbalanced forces in opposite directions, the object will go in the direction of the stronger force.
What is needed to make something move?
An outside force. An object at rest stays at rest unless acted on by an outside force.
What is something that can change the position of an object?
It can be a force or the absence of a force. A body at rest remains at rest unless it is acted on by a force. But, a body in motion will continue to move at a constant velocity (change its position) unless it is acted by a force.
What happens when an unbalanced force acts on an objects?
as stated in newtons second law of motion- an object acted upon by an unbalanced force will accelerate in the direction of that force

An object will move at constant speed until acted upon by a force.

Acted on by a force.
What will be the answer toAn object acted upon a force will what in the same direction of the force?
An object acted on by a force will accelerate in the direction of the force. Be careful, though, as this doesn't mean it will actually MOVE in the direction of the force. It may just slow down, etc.
What occurs when the net force on an object is zero?
The object does not move. Newton's Law of Motion states that an object with stay at rest unless acted upon by a force.
When two forces act on an object in opposite directions and the object moves will it move in the direction of the smaller or greater force?
Greater force

How will an object move if it is acted on by a positive net torque and force of zero?
A torque will make it rotate - or change its rotation.
What are the3 laws of motion?
1. A still object will remain still until acted upon by an outside force. A moving object will remain moving in the same direction with the same speed until acted upon by an outside force. 2. An object will move in the same direction as the force it was acted on by and will not stop even if the force stops 3. All actions have an equal and opposite reaction. Hopefully this helped
Will this object move by itself?
No, in Newton's 1st law it states that: An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an outside force. This means that there has to be a unbalanced force (like gravity) to make an object move.
