We don't know what the forces were or in what direction, and we don't know anything

about the object. So we have no idea what its motion looks like when the forces end.

But we do know that whatever speed it has and whatever direction it's moving at the instant

the forces stop, it'll continue in the same direction at the same speed from then on.

Unbalanced forces acting on an object produce motion?

The second law of Newton says that the sum of all the forces acting on an object is equal to the acceleration of this object, in a given frame of reference. If the sum of forces isn't equal to zero, therefore the acceleration isn't to. So the object has a speed and is in motion, in the frame of reference chosen.


How is net force on an object determined?

Add the different forces together to find the net force. For example, if you have a force of -5N acting on an object and another force of 8N acting on that object, the net force is 3 N.


What does Newtons 1st law of motion state about objects on which forces are balanced?

Newton's first law says "Every body remains in a state of constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force." This means that in the absence of a non-zero net force, the center of mass of a body either remains at rest, or moves at a constant velocity.Newton's first law for moving objects with balanced force is that the object "behaves" like it has no force acting on it. Because the object has balanced force, the object has a net force of zero, and according to Newton's first law, an object that is in motion will not change its velocity unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. The object is therefore in uniform motion (aka moving at constant velocity).


Describe each force that are acting on a moving object?

forces of body depends on the path it is moving for example if it is moving in straight path it under go forces like frictional forces and forces applied on it if the body is moving in slant path it has frictional force,acceleration due to to gravity(which acts down wards)


Why a continues unbalanced force is not required to continue the motion of an object?

because after the object is moving, and the forces are balanced, the force trying to slow it down (like friction, or air resistance) is equil to the one moving it, so it neither speeds up nor slows down. the same applies to the force trying to move the object.

How does an object and motion change in time?

An object's motion can change in time due to various factors such as forces acting on it, acceleration, and the presence of external influences like friction or air resistance. These changes can result in the object accelerating, decelerating, changing direction, or coming to a complete stop. The specific changes in object and motion depend on the particular circumstances and forces involved.


Are there forces acting on an object that's at rest?

Yes, there are always forces acting upon things, even when at rest (although all motion is relative so nothing is really "at rest"). There are some that are visible to the naked eye. For example, wind and corrosion. There are also forces that are not visible to the naked eye. Like the forces that make the electrons spin around the nucleus, the forces that hold the object together, etc....

What is the questions to the forces on object at rest?

For an object to be at rest, the sum of all the forces acting on that object must be zero.If you want to formulate a question, you can base it on that.


What is done only when an object moves in the direction of the applied force?

Not necessarily. In our atmosphere, of course, we have friction due to the object displacing air, or if it is moving on some kind of wheel we have bearing friction, wheels (or what-have-you) against the road surface, etc. If the path or speed of the object is changing, then there is a force acting on it. Like the space station orbiting the Earth.


Is force required to keep and object in motion?

Newton's 1st law says that an object in motion will stay in motion. So no external force is required. In most instances, there are already external forces, so in real world settings most objects in motion will require a force to stay in motion, because there are other external forces (like friction and gravity) that are already applied to that object.


What makes a rocket reach a steady speed?

When all the forces acting on it are equal, just like any object.

Do unbalanced forces change an object's motions?

Unbalanced forces DO change the motion of an object. Unbalanced is like tug-of-war, where one team is stronger. Meaning if the other team holds on to the rope, they'll be dragged forward.


What object has all forces acting on it?

Please redefine question. All objects have all forces acting on them to some degree or another, with strong and weak nuclear forces, gravitational, electromagnetic being the fundamental forces. Or do you mean something like uniform compression forces, say of a submersible underwater being "crushed from all sides".


Air resistance and water resistance are both examples of?

Resistant forces. They resist against the motion of an object, like kinetic friction.
