A moving object with no forces acting on it will continue to move because of inertia. For example, if the object is a chunk of rock in deep space, there will be nothing to slow it down and it might tumble for millenia. In contrast, a ball rolling across a grass field will have the force of friction from the grass (and a bit from air) slowing it down.

Mostly gravity and static friction. Friction is a manifestation of the electromagnetic force.

What is net force on an object at rest?
The net force on an object at rest is 0.
What is the force on an object at rest?
The net force on an object at rest is 0.
What hapPens to the net force of the object if it is at rest?
In that case, the net force on the object is zero.
What is the net force of something that is at rest?
The net force on such an object is zero.
What happens to the motion of an object if no net force acts?
If there is no net force, the object will stay at rest if it was at rest, or continue moving - at constant velocity - if it was already moving.
What is a zero net force?
If the net forces acting on an object amount to zero, that object is at rest.
If the net force acting on an object is zero then what will the object do?
It will keep moving with a constant velocity since zero net force means no acceleration. If the object is at rest, it will just stay at rest.
The net force of an object is zero can you conclude that the object is at rest?
You can't. The net force simply means that the acceleration is zero. It could be at rest, or the object could be moving at a constant velocity.
What is the net force of an object that is sitting still?
Since force is a function of acceleration and an object at rest has zero acceleration, then then net force is zero as well.
A simple net force definition?
A net force is a measure of the force being exerted on an object; zero net force means an object is at rest or moving at a constant speed.Definition of net force:The net force on an object is the vector sum of all individual forces acting on it.
Net force being zero?
when the net force of an object is at zero, it is at rest. That means that the forces on it are balanced. when the net force is not zero, the forces are unbalanced.
What is newtons first law of motion summarized?
"an object at rest will stay at rest, unless moved by a(n) outside force(net force). an object in motion will stay in motion, unless stopped by an outside force or friction.
