Equilibrium describes any state where the acceleration and net force are zero. This means that the velocity will not change.

The resistance of an object to a change in the speed or the direction of its motion?
2
This is an object's change in motion per unit time in a specified direction?
The phrase "change in motion" is rather slippery.The size of the change in the object's position, per unit time, in a specifieddirection, is the component of its velocity in that direction.The size of the change in the object's velocity, per unit time, in a specifieddirection, is the component of its acceleration in that direction.
How does inertia work?
It is exactly the same as momentum and covered by Newton's first law of motion. Inertia is a way of expressing the force required to get an object to move from rest, or the force required to change the velocity or direction of an object in motion. Anything that has mass will have inertia - a "resistance to move or change velocity or direction of motion".
What can a force do?
a force is something that you apply to an object- it can move-change shape-change direction-slow it down-make it faster
Is Inertia a form of energy?
it is the tendancy of an object to resist a change in motion.
What Describes forces that are equal but opposite in direction when they act on an object they cancel each other out and no change occurs in the object's motion?
Equilibrium
What is a change in an object's motion called?
A change in speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". If an object's speed or direction of motion changes, then the object is "accelerated".
Is velocity a change in an objects motion?
Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.
Can forces change an object motiin?
Yes, forces can change an object's motion. When a force is applied to an object, it can cause the object to accelerate, decelerate, or change direction. The change in motion is determined by the magnitude and direction of the force applied.
What is the correct name for circular motion?
If the motion is truly in the form of a circle, the phrase uniform circular motion describes it appropriately. This means that the object is in a constant state of motion about a fixed point at a constant distance from that point. Circular motion can be considered an acceleration, because an acceleration describes any change in velocity or direction. Since circular motion involves constant change in direction, the object exhibits constant acceleration.
What kind of motion does the speed and direction not change?
Acceleration in motion refers to a change in speed or direction of that object's motion. So a type of motion in which speed and direction do not change is a motion in which the acceleration is constant (i.e. unchanging).
Which of these would change the direction of an object but not affect the object's speed?
Circular motion would change the direction of an object but would not affect the object's speed.
What is any change in the speed or direction of a moving object?
This is one definition of acceleration (including deceleration) - any change in the speed of motion of a moving object, or in the direction of its motion. Motion is a vector value with both speed and direction.
If you exert force on an object in motion you will change its?
Direction
Will an unalanced force acting on an object change the object motion?
Yes,unbalaced force may stop or change the direction of motion or accelarate the object.
What must be applied to an object to change its direction?
Forces cause motion or the change in motion.
If you exert a force on an object in motion what will change?
If you exert a force on an object in motion you will change its velocity, velocity being a vector quantity of speed and direction.
