What causes a object to stay still?
The sum total of all the forces acting on the object is zero.
What is the effect of friction to the movement of an object?
friction causes the object in motion to slow down and finally stop. The natural condition of an object that is in motion is to stay in motion. Only friction (the object in contact with another object at rest) will cause the object in motion to lose its motion.
What causes motion of an object?
Applied force to an object causes motion.
What has to act on an object for it to stay in motion?
Nothing. The natural tendency of an object in motion, is to stay in motion.
For an object to stay in motion what has to act on it?
Nothing. The natural tendency of an object in motion, is to stay in motion.
What is the tendency of an object to stay in motion?
Inertia is the tendency of n object to stay in motion.
What causes an object want to continue doing whatever it was already doing?
Inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to stay in motion.
What force keeps an object in motion?
Newtons 2nd law of motion states:An object in motion will stay in motion, and an object out of motion will stay out of motion, unless met with an unbalanced force.Read more: Is_a_force_necessary_to_keep_an_object_in_motion
What is the tendency of an object to main its state of motion?
Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion.
What term is defined as the ability of an object at rest to stay at rest and an object in motion to stay in motion?
inertia
An object at rest tends to stay in rest an object in motion tends to stay in motion?
Because of inertia
What term is defined as the ability of an object at rest to stay at rest and a object in motion to stay in motion?
mass
