What else can I help you with?
Why do objects accelerate on ramps?
Objects will accelerate if there is a net force acting on them.
What causes objects to accelerate?
Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate.
How are objects able to accelerate?
When the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
Why do objects that experience the same amount of force accelerate at different rates?
Objects that experience the same amount of force can accelerate at different rates due to differences in their mass. Heavier objects require more force to accelerate at the same rate as lighter objects. This is explained by Newton's second law of motion, which states that acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass.
Why do larger objects require a greater force to accelerate the larger objects?
Larger objects have greater mass, which means they have more inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion, so more force is needed to overcome this resistance and accelerate larger objects.
Why do objects accelerate as they fall to the ground?
Objects accelerate as they fall to the ground due to the force of gravity acting on them. As the object falls, the force of gravity causes it to increase in speed, resulting in acceleration. This acceleration is a result of the unbalanced force acting on the object.
How does gravity affect the veloctiy of falling objects?
The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.
When you multiply an objects mass times the acceleration?
You get the force required to accelerate the object
What is the acceleration due to force of gravity?
The force of gravity pulls down on all objects here on earth. If objects are allowed to fall, they accelerate downwards.
What is force that pulls on objects and causes acceleration if the objects are not balanced by an opposing force?
I believe gravity would fit that description.
Is gravity a force or an acceleration?
Gravity is a force that causes objects with mass to be attracted to each other. It is not an acceleration itself, but it does cause objects to accelerate towards each other.
Why do falling objects accelerate at first?
Falling objects accelerate due to the force of gravity acting upon them. As the object falls, the force of gravity pulls it downward, increasing its speed. This acceleration continues until the object reaches terminal velocity or encounters another force counteracting gravity.
