It accelerates as long as the force is applied, and after that it continues at a uniform speed and direction.

What happens when I apply a force on an object in space?

You would go one way, the object would go the other. 794316016 438713016 584139706 361342536 935406853 111079410 327566211 659148588 662676729 312585563


If you put a force of 10 n on an object and the object has the mass of 5 kg what will the acceleration of that object be?

If operating in free space, the speed of the object will be constant. If not operating in free space, but under the effects of gravity, then apply gravitational formulas to find the answer.


Why does an astronaut have to exert a force on a weightless object in order to move it?

An astronaut has to exert a force on a weightless object in order to move it because in space, there is no gravity to naturally pull or push objects. Therefore, the astronaut must apply force to overcome inertia and move the object.


What is a region of space that exerts a force on a test object at every point in that space?

A gravitational field is a region of space that exerts a force on a test object at every point in that space. This force is proportional to the mass of the object and weaker with distance from the source of the field.


What will happen to an object if it is put into motion in space?

When an object is put into motion in space, it will continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed unless acted upon by an external force. This is known as Newton's first law of motion.


What object in space exerts force on another object that is close to it?

An object in space exerts force on another object close to it due to gravity. Gravity is a fundamental force that attracts objects with mass towards each other. The strength of the gravitational force is determined by the masses of the objects and the distance between them.


How is the force of earth's gravity overcome when an object is launched into space?

The object launched into space has rocket motors with more force taking it away from Earth than Earth's force of gravity has in pulling the object toward its center.


What force is causes an object to orbit another object in space?

Gravitational pull


Why might someone want to change the direction of a force they apply?

Someone might want to change the direction of a force they apply to adjust the motion or orientation of an object, to overcome an obstacle, to control the speed or velocity of something, or to change the position of an object within a system.


What is the space around a charged object in which another charged object experiences an electric force?

The space around a charged object in which another charged object experiences an electric force is known as the electric field. The electric field at any point in space represents the force that would be experienced by a positive test charge if placed at that point. It exerts a force on any charged object within its influence.


How can you explore space if gravity attracts objects toward earth?

The same way you walk up a flight of stairs while gravity attracts you toward earth ... you apply an upward force to the object that's greater than the downward force of gravity. When you do that, the net force on the object is upward, and it accelerates away from the earth.
