If the object is moving at constant speed, then the net force on it is zero.

In order to have zero net force in the vertical direction, the lifting force is equal to

the gravitational force.

The gravitational force is the object's weight. With a mass of 2,232,000 kg,

the object's weight is

21,873,600 newtons (4,920,712 pounds) .

A force less than that much can't lift the load. A force greater than that much accelerates it

upward. Once it's rising, a force of exactly that much keeps it rising at constant speed.

Do you need constant force to produce constant speed?

Constant forces provide a constant speed. This is true on a basic physics level, you could argue and bring up examples but this is PHYSICS, it doesn't deal with real life. It's all mirrors and forces.


What force is needed to stop an object at constant speed?

The force needed to stop an object at a constant speed is equal to the force of friction acting in the opposite direction of the object's motion. This force is typically referred to as the braking force. It works to counteract the object's inertia and bring it to a complete stop.


If an object is moving at a constant speed in one direction what is needed to change the speed direction?

To change the speed or direction of an object moving at a constant speed, an external force is required. This force can come from a push, pull, or any other interaction that can accelerate or decelerate the object in a different direction.


How do you compute the force of a given mass at a constant speed?

The force on a mass moving at a constant speed and direction is 0.


Why does a car need force from its engine when moving at a constant speed?

If there be no force ie no deceleration then no need to apply any force to compensate such a deceleration. But deceleration is there due to frictional force between the tyre and the road. Hence to compensate this we have apply acceleration. So force is needed OK Physics laws State that an object in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by an outside force. The car moving at a constant speed is being acted upon by wind resistance, gravity, and friction. Therefore force is needed to retain the constant speed


If an object is moving at a constant speed in one direction what is needed to change its speed or direction?

To change the speed or direction of an object moving at a constant speed, a force must be applied in the opposite direction of its motion to slow it down and a force must be applied in the desired direction of its new path to change its direction. The magnitude and direction of the force will determine how much the speed or direction changes.


Is there an angle for the plane at which no horizontal force can keep the mass moving at constant speed?

Yes, the angle is when the force of gravity acting parallel to the incline is greater than the force needed to maintain constant speed. This angle is known as the critical angle of incline. At this angle, no amount of horizontal force will be able to keep the mass moving at a constant speed and it will start accelerating down the incline.


If you are going the same speed the greater the vehicle the greater the force?

No, the force needed to maintain a certain speed is determined by the vehicle's mass and friction with the road, not its size. A larger vehicle may require more force to accelerate or decelerate due to its greater mass, but at a constant speed, the force would be the same.


What is the effect of a constant force on speed?

A constant force will cause an object to accelerate in the direction of the force, leading to an increase in speed over time. The greater the force applied, the greater the acceleration and the faster the object's speed will increase. If the force is removed, the object will continue to move at a constant speed due to its inertia.


An object will move at constant speed until?

An object will move at constant speed until acted upon by a force.


What is the net force on a car moving in a straight line which a constant speed?

The net force on a car moving at a constant speed in a straight line is zero. This is because the forces acting on the car, such as friction and air resistance, are balanced by the force produced by the engine to maintain the constant speed.


When ball is thrown upward then applied force is constant why not speed of ball is constant?

because there if speed is constant than ball never come back to earth hence speed of ball is not constant
