though different terminology is used. Motion is thought of in acceleration and velocity. Now, velocity is just the distance covered over an amount of time, or speed. Acceleration is the change in speed. In general terms, any object that is standing still is being acted upon by equal and opposite forces, and if one of those forces was changed, then the object would undergo acceleration. Think of a person holding a coffee cup. Gravity is working on the object to pull it down, and his or her arm is pulling equally in the opposite direction to keep it up. If the person were to let go, there wouldn't be the upward force, and the cup would accelerate towards the Earth, and its "motion" would be changed.
TRUE!
False. Only unbalanced forces can change the objects motion (velocity).
That is false.
Yes.
false
'Acceleration' is a change in the speed and/or direction of motion.
false
false
It is false. Change of direction is acceleration, which can only be produced by unbalanced forces.

It is false. Change of direction is acceleration, which can only be produced by unbalanced forces.
If the forces acting on an object are balanced, then the object will do none of those things. The statement is false.
true
False. Acceleration is a change of speed or direction over time.
False. Climate change always has a cause. It can't change by itself.
False. They are balanced by changing the coefficients.
