Yes, the object can have equal forces acting in opposite directions:

5N ->[]<- 5N

The object will have forces acting upon it, but will not move.

Is it possible for an object not to be in motion and still have a force acting on it?

Yes, the object can have equal forces acting in opposite directions: 5N -&gt;[]&lt;- 5N The object will have forces acting upon it, but will not move.


Is it possible for an object to have serveral forces acting on it and still not change its motion?

Yes. As long as the forces are equal and opposite the object will not change its motion.


How do balanced forces acting on an object affect its motion. How do unbalanced forces acting on an object affect its motion?

Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).


How do unbalanced forces acting on an object its motion?

Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).


When the forces acting on an object are balanced the motion of the object?

are constant


Unbalanced forces acting on an object will change the object's motion?

Yes.


How do balance forces acting on an object affect its motion?

When the forces acting on an object are balanced, they cancel each other out and the result is no change in its motion.Balanced forces have no effect on motion. Unbalanced forces cause acceleration.


When is an object travelling in an uniform motion?

It travels in uniform motion when there are no net forces acting on it.


How do unbalanced forces acting on an object affects it's motions?

Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).


Do all forces acting on objects cause motion?

If the forces acting on an object are equal there is no motion (5N-&gt;O&lt;-5N). If the forces are unequal there is movement (7N--&gt;O&lt;-5N).


What are unbalanced forces and what?

Balanced forces describes when all forces on an object are equal. Unbalanced forces describes when the forces on an object are unequal, resulting in movement. Forces are balanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is zero, at which point the object will be at rest or be in motion with constant velocity. Forces are unbalanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is greater or less than zero, at which point the object will accelerate by either starting motion from rest, or changing its motion if it is already in motion, for example, by changing direction or speed.


What is result of unbalanced forces acting on an object?

The result is acceleration of the object ... its speed of motion, or direction of motion, or both, change.
