I'm always curious about questions like this. Since the answer is obvious, why ask it?

Also, the answer isn't obvious. The question speaks of "motion." Does this require "unbalanced force."? Usually, it does. Like in a tug-of-war. But suppose you're just a particle in space and something bumps into you. Is that "unbalanced force?"

Is an unbalanced force needed to start motion?

Yes, in order for an object to accelerate or decelerate, the resultant force cannot be zero.To cause a car to accelerate, the forward force (thrust force/engine force) must be greater than the backwards force (friction force/brake force). When this unbalanced force is achieved, the body will initiate its motion.


What does the unbalanced force exerted on object at rest?

When an object is at rest, the forces acting upon it are balanced - there are no unbalanced forces.


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).


To start or change the motion of an object do you need unbalanced force or balanced force?

Doesn't matter Balanced Force would mean the object is traveling at a constant velocity due to Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia) Unbalenced Force would mean the object is accelerating (or decellerating) due to Newton's Second Law of Motion


Can a unbalanced force change an objects motion?

Yes, an unbalanced force can change an object's motion by causing it to accelerate or decelerate in the direction of the force. It can also change the object's direction or speed depending on the magnitude and direction of the force applied.


What is the motion of a marble when an unbalanced force influences it?

When an unbalanced force acts on a marble, it will accelerate in the direction of the force. The acceleration will depend on the magnitude and direction of the force applied. The marble will continue to move until another force acts to change its motion or until its velocity is zero.


What has frictional force needed to start an object at rest into motion?

The frictional force needed to start an object at rest into motion is the static frictional force. This force must be overcome by an external force before the object can start moving. Once the object is in motion, the kinetic frictional force will oppose its movement.


Can a force set a motionless object in motion?

Force is the only thing that can set a motionless object in motion.


Can unbalanced forces start motion?

yes


Friction is the frictional force needed to start an object at rest into motion.?

static


Give an example of an unbalanced force?

When you start falling, you are in the situation when you are subject to the unbalanced force - gravity. After some time of falling force of gravity is balanced by air drug force at that moment you reach so called "terminal velocity" and your acceleration becomes zero.


How do unbalanced forces affect motion?

-- An unbalanced group of forces on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the net force. -- If an object is not moving, then the group of forces on it must be balanced, else it would be accelerated.
