What law states that every object maintains constant velocity unless acted on by and unbalanced force?

The law of Conservation of energy, Newton's First law. This law requires the objects acceleration be zero, thus constant velocity.


What is the force required to maintain an object at a constant velocity in free space equal to?

Newton's 1st Law of Motion states that an object will maintain its speed when there is no net force acting on it. The question refers to free space and constant velocity -- the net force has to be zero. =========================


What is the formula for newton's 1st law?

Newton has three different laws of motion. The first is the Law of Inertia, the second is the law regarding Mass, Force, and Acceleration, and the third is the law that states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." Newton's second law is the only one that comes with a formula. The formula is force equals mass times acceleration.


How does law of acceleration changes speed?

The LAW of acceleration doesn't change anything; a physical law just describes how things work. Acceleration means change of speed. Or, to me more accurate, it means the rate of change of velocity - in other words, how fast velocity changes.


A body at rest tends to stay at?

Rest. At rest denotes a constant velocity including velocity of zero. Newton's Law says that a body will change its velocity ,accelerate or decelerate, only when an external force is applied. No force, no acceleration, no change in velocity. At rest itself denotes no force.

What is the equation for Newton's first law?

The Mathematical equation of Newton's 1st law is : The Conservation of Energy or Equilibrium dE/dr = F= ma = mdv/dt = 0. Thus acceleration is zero when there is no force and no acceleration means no change in velocity or velocity is constant at Equilibrium.


What do you call the tendency of matter to stay at rest if it is at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity if it is in motion?

That would be Newton's 1st Law of Motion.


What is the meaning of law of inertia?

The Law of Inertia means , No force, No Acceleration (change in velocity) and Vice verso No acceleration (change in velocity), No Force.


What is Laws of inertia?

the body keeps it's state either at rest or moving with uniform velocity , unless affected by external force (newton's 1st law of motion )


Which of newtons law states that the velocity or speed of an object does not change unlewhich of newtons law states that the velocity or speed of an object does not change unless a force interferes?

That is Newton's First Law.

Is velocity proportional to force with respect to the law of motion?

No. I assume you mean Newton's Second Law; this law - in the form it is commonly teached in schools - states that F=ma. Assuming mass is constant, that would make force proportional to acceleration - not to velocity. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.


What does Newton's 1st law of motion state?

Newton's first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest and a body in motion remains in motion in a straight line at constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
