What is force acting on a body with uniform motion?
A body in uniform motion has no net force acting on it. That means that either there are no forces at all, or else that all the forces acting on it add up to zero.
If a moving body has no acceleration does it mean no force acts on it?
There can well be forces acting on the body. It means that the NET FORCE (the vector sum of all the forces) acting on the object is zero.
What is a diagram in which all of the forces acting on an object shown?
That's known as a free body diagram.
Which term describes the vector sum of the forces acting on a body?
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object.
What is a state in which all forces acting on an object are in balance?
Equilibrium is a state in which all forces acting on an object are in balance.
What is force acting on a body with uniform motion?
A body in uniform motion has no net force acting on it. That means that either there are no forces at all, or else that all the forces acting on it add up to zero.
What terms refers to the sum of all the forces acting on an object?
resultant or net force
If a moving body has no acceleration does it mean no force acts on it?
There can well be forces acting on the body. It means that the NET FORCE (the vector sum of all the forces) acting on the object is zero.
What term refers to the sum of all of the acting forces acting on an object?
I'd call it the resultant, but "net force" is a good name too.
What is equilibrant forces?
The force is said to be "equilibrant" when acting with other forces it would keep the body at rest ie in equilibrium. Hence equilibrant would be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the resultant of all the forces acting on the body.
How forces affect speed?
The relationship is given by Newton's Second Law: F=ma F (force) is the net force - this refers to the vector sum of all forces acting on a body. m is the mass, and a the acceleration - the change of velocity.
What do you call a diagram showing all forces acting on an object?
Free Body Diagram
When the forces of an object are balanced what is the net force?
When the forces are balanced, the net force is zero, by definition. "Net force" refers to the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object.
What is a diagram in which all of the forces acting on an object shown?
That's known as a free body diagram.
What is true net force?
The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body.
Which term describes the vector sum of the forces acting on a body?
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object.
When can forces be added together to find the net force upon an object?
Yes, when all the forces acting on a body have been resolved, the final force is known as the 'net force' acting on that body.
