What 2 things change when an unbalanced force is applied to an object?
When the forces on an object are unbalanced the changes that could happen are the object speeds up, or slows down. And it can changes direction.
When the net force of an object is not 0 the forces on the object are what?
The forces are not in equilibrium and there is a resultant(net, unbalanced) force on the object.
When no unbalanced forces act on an object the object can have no?
If forces on an object are balanced, the object will not accelerate - i.e., its velocity won't change.
How does an unbalanced force affect a moving object at a constant velocity?
If the group of forces on an object is unbalanced, then the object can't have constant velocity. Its speed or the direction of its motion must change.
What will happen to an object moving at constant velocity?
Such an object is traveling at a constant speed in a straight line. Nothing will happen to it until the forces acting on it become unbalanced, or it runs into something.
Does unbalanced forces maintain motion at constant velocity?
No. If the forces on an object are unbalanced, that means their sum is not zero, and there is a net force on the object. Since there is a net force on it, the object is accelerated, which is another way of saying that its velocity changes.
What indicates that an object is unbalanced?
If forces on an object are unbalanced, it will accelerate (its velocity will change). If torques are unbalanced, it will start to rotate - or more precisely, its speed of rotation will change.
How do forces acting on an object?
If forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate or decelerate. If forces on an object are balanced, the object will stay still or keep moving with the same velocity.
What happens when you have unbalanced forces acting on an object?
Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.Then the object accelerates; its velocity changes.
How do unbalanced forces differ from balanced forces?
An object with no force on it will either be at rest or moving with a steady velocity, an object with an unbalanced force, which is the same as saying it has a net force on it, will be accelerating (or decelerating)
What are the similarities between balanced and unbalanced forces?
An object with balanced forces acting on it is still. An object with unbalanced forces acting on them moves at an non constant velocity. It is possible for an object to have balanced forces acting on it and yet move in a vacuum.
