If there is no net force, the object will stay at rest if it was at rest, or continue moving - at constant velocity - if it was already moving.

What happens when a net force acts on a object?

The object changes its speed, its direction of motion, or both.


What happens when no force acts on an object?

Nothing changes. When no force acts on an object moving with constant velocity, the body continues its motion with uniform velocity, or if the object is at rest, it will remain at rest.

A force that acts on an object does only when the object moves?

A force will produce acceleration when the object moves. force in the line of motion will increase the acceleration and the force opposite to the line of motion will decrease the acceleration.


3 laws of motions?

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction An object in motion stays in motion until a force acts upon it An object that is not in motion stays in place until a force acts upon it


An object at rest stays at rest until a force acts on it?

Yes. If it is at rest to start with, it will remain at rest until an external force acts on it. Likewise, an object starting in motion will remain in that same motion until an external force acts on it.


How does the surface affect the motion of an object?

The surface of an object affects the aerodynamic drag: a force which acts against the direction of motion.


How does force cause motion?

An object is stationary until a force acts on it, then when a force acts on it it will keep going the same direction and speed forever, until another force acts on it.
