A layman's attempt: Any unbalanced force applied over time to an object that is free to move will bring about acceleration.

∙ 15y agoAcceleration occurs when an object experiences an unbalanced force acting upon it. This force can be due to gravity, friction, tension, or any other external force that is not canceled out by an opposing force. In other words, acceleration is the result of a net force acting on an object.

Forces such as gravity, friction, tension, and applied forces can cause acceleration in an object. When an unbalanced force acts on an object, it can cause the object to accelerate in the direction of the force.
Balanced forces cause no acceleration because they result in a net force of zero acting on an object. When the forces in opposite directions are equal in magnitude, they cancel each other out, leading to no change in the object's motion.
If forces are working in the same direction, they will result in a net force that is the sum of the individual forces. This will cause an acceleration in the direction of the combined forces.
Friction and air resistance are two common forces that can cause a decrease in acceleration. Friction between surfaces can oppose motion, while air resistance acts against objects moving through the air, both reducing the net force acting on an object and therefore its acceleration.
Velocity can change due to acceleration or deceleration, changes in direction, external forces acting on the object, or changes in the object's mass.

Unbalanced forces cause acceleration.
acceleration
Balanced forces do not cause changes in an object's motion or acceleration. When two forces are balanced, their magnitudes and directions cancel each other out, resulting in no net force acting on the object.

In all cases acceleration.
An unbalanced force will cause acceleration in the direction of the force.
A force causes an acceleration. That implies that it will change: * The velocity, and * The momentum.
