Is a force that sets an object in motion unbalanced?

Yes. A balanced force - that is, if the sum of forces on an object is zero - there won't be an acceleration.


What are the affects of forces?

1. force changes direction of motion. 2. it brings an object to rest. 3. it changes magnitude of velocity. 4. it sets an object to motion.


How does force affect an object's motion?

When a force is acted on an object the motion changes. Newtons 2nd law of motion states: An object in motion will stay in motion, and an object out of motion will stay out of motion, unless met with an unbalanced force. If a force is aplied to an object in motion it either accelerates, or it will stop once met with sed unbalanced force.


Why does object in motion stay in motion?

An object in motion stays in motion because it requires a force to change the motion. No force, no change.


How does force affect the motion of an object?

If you apply force to an object, you accelerate it. If you apply the force in the direction that the object is moving, you speed it up. If you apply it in the opposite direction, you slow it down. If you apply the force in another direction than the object is moving in you will change the direction of the objects motion. The amount of acceleration is given by a = F/m where a is acceleration, F is force and m is the mass of the object.


What is the definition of a pulling force?

force applied to an object as a pulling motion towards a fixed or an object in equal motion with the object.


Can a force set a motionless object in motion?

Force is the only thing that can set a motionless object in motion.


How does apparent force affect the motion of an object?

Accelerates the motion of an object.


What causes motion of an object?

Applied force to an object causes motion.


Is a force to keep an object in motion?

No, a force changes an object's motion. F=ma= mdv/dt


Would there have to be an Unbalanced force acting on moving object?

There would have to be an unbalanced force put an object in motion but once in motion no force is necessary for it to remain in motion


When a nonzero net force acts on an object the force?

changes the motion of the object
