An equal and opposite force is also applied to the object,
so that the vector sum of all the forces on it is zero.

How are constant speed and constant acceleration different?
There is a huge difference between constant speed and constant acceleration. Constant speed is when the object is travelling constant, no change in its velocity and acceleration or in other words no extra force to speed up. Constant acceleration when the object is acceleration constant, it means that the speed of the object is change at the same rate each second. The acceleration rate at which the object is travelling is constant. for example, when a car is stationary at a traffic light and it starts acceleration, picking up speed but the rate of acceleration will not constant because the amount of force applied differs each second due to the acceleration rate.
If a net torque is applied to an object that object will experience which of the following a constant angular speed angular acceleration or an increasing moment of inertia?
angular acceleration
What would be the situation if mass were added to or lost from a system while a constant force was being applied to the system?
Since Force = Mass x Acceleration If force is held constant and one varies the mass then the acceleration will vary according to the equation: Acceleration = Force / Mass As a result, the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. In other words, if one increases the mass of the object, the acceleration of the object will decrease proportionally. Similarly, if one decreases the mass of the object, the acceleration will increase proportionally.
What kind of motion does a constant force produce on an object of fixed mass?
Constant acceleration. Note that all orbits approximate this condition.
If an object falls with constant acceleration the velocity of the object must?
Changing at a constant rate equal to acceleration.
Is it possible for an object to have a constant acceleration and a non-zero velocity?
Yes, a falling apple meets that condition.
An object maintains a constant acceleration unless there is a change in mass applied force air resistance any?
Wrong. An object maintains a constant velocity unless there is a change in mass, applied force, air resistance or some other external force.
What change occurs to the mass of an object when an unbalanced force is applied to it?
There will by no change in the mass, which is constant, but the unbalanced force will cause the object to accelerate. Acceleration can be in a positive direction or a negative direction ("deceleration"), or it can be circular, in which the acceleration changes constantly, even if the velocity remains constant.
When does any object show acceleration?
Object shows acceleration when the force applied on it is increased.
What changes as an object moves with a constant acceleration?
During constant acceleration, either the object's speed changes at a constant rate, or the direction of its motion changes at a constant rate, or both.
Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration?
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
What occurs when the objects free falls near earths surfaces?
Constant acceleration
