f=ma newtons 2nd law of motion where f is the net force m is mass in kg and a is acceleration in m/s^2 basically the net force is in the direction of the acceleration

Does newtons second law state that if an unbalanced force acts on an object it will move at constant velocity?
It can accelerate or decelerate, depending on the direction of force
A net force causes an object to?
Accelerate, motion is generated by applying force to mass.
What newtons 2nd law of motion?
newtons 2nd law states that if a force is put on an object then the object will move in the oppisite direction of the force no thats the third law
If you apply a fixed number of newtons on an object over time does it accelerate?
It depends on whether the force is unbalanced against another. If so, then yes; it will accelerate according to the formula F = ma or a = F/m. Note that force does not accumulate - applying one newton every minute for ten minutes is not the same as applying ten newtons for one minute.
Is newton cradle an example of newton's second or third law?
I believe it's Newtons second law because, the definition of Newtons second law is : An object acted by a force will accelerate in the direction of the force. When you push someone if you push hard enough their body will move in the direction they were pushed or forced to go or travel.
What happens when an unbalanced force acts on an objects?
as stated in newtons second law of motion- an object acted upon by an unbalanced force will accelerate in the direction of that force
An object will accelerate in the direction of what?
An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting on that object.
An object will accelerate in the direction of what force?
An object will accelerate in the direction of net force
What happens when an unbalanced force is acting on an object?
as stated in newtons second law of motion- an object acted upon by an unbalanced force will accelerate in the direction of that force
Will an object that has a normal force accelerate in the direction of the force?
Yes. If there is an unbalanced force on an object, the object will always accelerate in the direction of the force.
Would it be true to say that objects accelerate when foces are unbalanced?
That is true. According to Newton's first law of motion: "An object at rest tends to stay at rest, of if it is in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a sum of physical forces." So if I'm pushing in one direction with 5 Newtons of force, and you are pushing in the opposite direction with 3 Newtons of force, the object will begin to accelerate towards you. This is also assuming that we either void the static friction, or we are on a frictionless surface.
What is an object speed and direction?
in terms of speed and direction , in what ways can an object accelerate
How are objects able to accelerate?
When the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
In terms of speed and direction in what way can an object accelerate?
an object can accelerate both up and down
What ways can an object accelerate in terms of speed and direction?
an object can accelerate both up and down
What direction do object accelerate?
The way it starts
In What direction do object accelerate?
The way it starts
