A contact force: a force directly acting on the object by physical means: and field force: a force that affects an object without direct physical means (ex. gravity, magnetism, weak force, strong force). And in order to move an object in a certain direction, you must apply enough force in one direction to overcome other forces acting on the object. This idea is basically net force which shows you the total force and in what direction it occurs. To calculate the force needed in order to move the object, you just add or subtract forces depending on what direction you are trying to make it go.
Ex. An object has a force of 10 newtons east but you want it going west. You mark the forces first: force 1= -10 (since it is in the opposite direction we want), Force 2= X newtons. To find X we need to make an equality creating at least a force greater than 0 since if we just make it 0, then the velocity will just stay the same in the negative direction. So we make the inequality X-10>0. Then we just solve the inequality which would end out to be x>10 which means that we need a force greater than 10 newtons in the west direction.

What is the weight of the object being moved is called?
resistance force.
What is gravitational force exerted on an object called?
It is called weight...
The buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the water it?
The buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the water it displaces. This is called Archimedes' principle, which states that "The buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object."
The force of gravity on any object is called its?
The mutual force with which every two masses attract each other because of gravity is referred to as the "weight" of the objects.
Measure of the force of gravity acting on an object is what?
The force of gravity between the Earth and an object on its surface is what we call the object's "weight". What is not generally appreciated is that the object attracts the Earth toward it with the same force. This means that whatever your weight is on Earth, it's the same as the Earth's weight on you.
What is the weight of the object being moved is called?
resistance force.
What is force of gravity on an object called?
That is called the object's weight.
What is the force on an object is called?
weight

A measure of the gravitional force exerted on an object.?
According to scientists, a measure of gravitational force that is most likely exerted on an object is the objectâ??s weight.
What measure of the force of a gravity on a object?
That is called "weight".
What is the force of gravity between earth and the object is called?
That's the object's "weight".
What is the measureof the force of gravity acting on a n object?
That is called the object's weight.
The force of gravity on any object is called its?
The mutual force with which every two masses attract each other because of gravity is referred to as the "weight" of the objects.
