Newton's 2nd Law of Motion states that F = m * a, where F = the net force acting on an object [N]; m = the mass of the object [kg]; and a = acceleration [m/s2] . If the motion is linear, then we can consider scalar operations on F and a. If the force is a vector, then a has to be a vector too.

Picking up a glass of beer from the table.

Force of gravity . . . down.

Force of arm muscle . . . upward.

Forces are unequal. Upward force is greater than downward force.

Glass accelerates upward, toward mouth.

You're talking about "unbalanced forces". But the change in the object's motion

is not in the direction of the larger force. It's in the direction of the vector sum of

all the forces, which is not necesssarily the direction of any single one of them.

If the sum of all forces acting on one object is not exactly zero, the forces are said to be unbalanced. In that case, the object will accelerate.

Do all forces acting on objects cause motion?

If the forces acting on an object are equal there is no motion (5N->O<-5N). If the forces are unequal there is movement (7N-->O<-5N).
