Must there be an unbalanced net force acting on any moving objects?

Yes, whether an object will move or stay stationary in its place, or move in contant velocity depends on the NET force that is acting on it.
* If there is a balanced force, ( all forces cancel each other out) , then the object will not move, or stay moving at a constant velocity (a=0)
* If there is an unbalanced force, (forces donot cancel), then the object will move.

∙ 11y agoA force doesn't act on another force. Forces act on objects.
"Unbalanced force" simply means that the sum of all forces acting on an object - that is, the net force - is not equal to zero.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIf the speed or direction of the object's motion is changing, you can bet that there's
a non-zero net force acting on it. "Net" means it's not balanced by other forces.

Why there must be an unbalanced force acting if an object is moving in a circle at constant speed?
If an unbalanced force was not acting upon it, it wouldn't be moving in a circle.An object with no unbalanced force will either not be moving, or be moving in a straight line due to Isaac Newtons 1st law of motion.
What is a common unbalanced force acting on objects in motion?
Friction
Can a unbalanced force change an objects motion?
An unbalanced force can: change the speed an object moves at change the direction an object is moving cause an object to start/stop moving
What is An unbalanced force acting on an object?
the unbalanced force would be balance.
Can unbalanced force change an objects motion?
If the group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object's motion always changes. The change is called "acceleration".

What is a common unbalanced force acting on objects in motion?
Friction
Would there have to be an Unbalanced force acting on moving object?
There would have to be an unbalanced force put an object in motion but once in motion no force is necessary for it to remain in motion
Can a unbalanced force change an objects motion?
An unbalanced force can: change the speed an object moves at change the direction an object is moving cause an object to start/stop moving
What is An unbalanced force acting on an object?
the unbalanced force would be balance.
Can unbalanced force change an objects motion?
If the group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object's motion always changes. The change is called "acceleration".
What is the force exerted by the object you are trying to move?
Its a reaction force, and is equal and opposite to your force, only it is acting on different objects, so the force is still unbalanced.
Objects moving at a constant speed in a straight are said to be in?
Objects moving at constant speed in a straight line are said to be in equilibrium. That is there is no force acting on them. If a force was acting there would be aceleration and the velocity would change.
Infer whether balanced forces must be acting on a car moving at a constant speed?
The friction force acting upon the turned wheels of the car cause an unbalanced force upon the car and a subsequent acceleration.
An unbalanced force will not change an objects motion?
If the forces on an object are unbalanced then the objects motion will change. It will start accelerating in the direction of the resultant force. Only objects that have balanced forces will remain in the same motion (stationary or moving at a constant speed).
What is an unbalanced force that slows down moving objects?
the force is called gravity (I'm not really sure if that's the right answer, but you can just go to google and type in force that slows down moving objects, glad if I helped(:
Why would a force be unbalanced?
In principle, any force acting on an object is unbalanced, UNLESS there is a second force in the opposite direction, acting on the same object.
