Buoyancy is a force that always acts in an?
Buoyancy always acts in the direction opposite to the direction of the gravitational force. We normally consider this direction as 'upward'.
What part of a force does work when the direction of the force and the direction of motion are not the same?
Force only takes place in the direction of the motion. It cannot be any other way. It could be argued that the action of a cars tyres on the road applies to your question. The car moves forward while the tyres push the earth in the opposite direction. However the tyres are the motion supplying the force and not the car moving in the opposite direction..
What is the Scientific name for pushing and pulling?
FORCE it may be reffered to as resistance if it's direction is opposite to the motion direction
What does every action force have?
Every action force, according to Newton's third law of motion,has a reaction force acted on equal magnitude and opposite direction. but the action and reaction force do not cancel each other because they act on different bodies.
What does every force have?
A magnitude, direction and sense of direction. it has an equal and opposite force too. eather way it also has a magnitude, direction and sense of direction.
How the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of an of an objects motion?
Friction always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
How does the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of of an objects motion?
Friction always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
What does the dierection of friction always act?
it acts in the opposite direction of motion or force
How does the direction of friction compare with the dierection of the velcocity of a sliding object?
The "force" of friction is always exactly opposite the direction of motion.
What is the direction of friction forces?
opposing the motion
What direction of friction acts in a direction to the direction of the objects motion?
Friction provides a retarding force. It always acts in the exact opposite direction of the motion of the object.
Friction acts in a direction of what to the direction of an objects motion?
Friction provides a retarding force. It always acts in the exact opposite direction of the motion of the object.
Force that resists motion between two touching surfaces and always acts opposite to the direction of motion?
A force that resists motion between two touching surfaces and always acts opposite to the direction of motion is called friction. Friction will slow down a car when the brakes are applied.
What is the force that atcs in an opposite direction to the motion of a moving object?
Friction always acts in a direction opposing the motion of an object.
In which direction does friction act?
Friction always acts in the opposite direction to that of the motion of the other object. Meaning, friction slows down the motion of an object by exerting opposing forces on it.
What does a force in the opposite direction to the motion cause?
A force applied to a moving object in the opposite direction of its motion causes its velocity to decrease.
What force is always opposite to motion?
An example of such a force is friction, but a term for forces that act against motion are decelerative forces.Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. However, these can be in any direction and may or may not influence an object in motion.
