Do balanced forces acing on an object cause the object to accelerate?

No. To have an acceleration, an UNBALANCED force is required.


What is the acceleration of an object that required 10N of force to accelerate kg?

When you multiply an objects mass times the acceleration?

You get the force required to accelerate the object


How does a change in mass affects the accelaration of an object?

Force = Mass * Acceleration (F = m * a)Therefore, if the mass of an object is increased, then the force required to accelerate to a given velocity will be greater. If the mass is decreased, then the force required to accelerate that object to a given velocity will become smaller.


The force required to slide an object is equal to?

The force required to accelerate an object depends on the object's mass. Newton's second law states that Force = Mass * Acceleration. Re-written to solve for acceleration, this becomes Acceleration = Force/Mass. Basically, this means that the more mass an object has, the more force is required to accelerate it. Also, the faster you want to accelerate the object, the more force you will need.


An object will accelerate in the direction of what?

An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting on that object.


How can you make and object accelerate?

An object will accelerate if and only if there is a net force acting on the object.


An object will accelerate in the direction of what force?

An object will accelerate in the direction of net force


A net force causes an object to?

Accelerate, motion is generated by applying force to mass.


The force required to accelerate to one kilogram object by one meter per second squared?

One newton.


A net force greater than zero will cause an object to?

... to accelerate.... to accelerate.... to accelerate.... to accelerate.


What are the requirements for an object to accelerate?

Velocity must be changing in order for an object to accelerate or decelerate.
