What is the net force on an object moving at a constant velocity?
The net force on an object moving at a constant velocity is zero.
If an object is moving at constant velocity what happens to the net force?
If the object is moving at constant velocity, that's an indication that the net force on it is zero.
What is velocity if the net force is 0?
If the net force on an object is zero, then velocity of the object is constant ... it moves in a straight line at a constant speed.
If we are told that an object has a constant velocity what can we say about the force on that object?
you can say that there is no net force on the object; that is, the net force is zero
When does an object move with constant velocity?
An object moves with constant velocity when there is no net force acting upon it. If there are no forces acting on an object, or if the forces acting on it "cancel out" leaving a net force of zero acting on the object, it will have zero acceleration. With a zero acceleration, the velocity of the object will be constant.
A feather with no net force on it maintains constant?
In physics, net force refers to the overall force acting on an object. A feather with no net force on it maintains constant velocity.
If the net force acting on an object is 0 can you conclude that the object is at rest Why or why not?
no you cannot prove it is at rest since it may be moving at constant velocity. Constant velocity has no acceleration, hence no net force
How does the net force on an object determine the motion of the object?
If there is a net force of 0 acting on an object then the object is either stationary or moving at a constant velocity. If the net force is not zero the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.
If object is not moving what is its net force?
If the object is static (and remains static), or if it moves at a constant velocity, that means that the net force on the object is zero.
Can a moving object be in equilibrium?
Yes, if the velocity is a constant with no net force.
What can you assume if an object has a constant velocity?
The net force acting on it is zero.
When an object is not acted upon by a net outside force?
the object moves at a constant velocity
If an object is moving at constant velocity should There be a force in the direction of velocity?
No. If there is a net force (if the sum of all the forces is not equal to zero), then there will be an acceleration, and the velocity will NOT be constant.
What is the acceleration of of an object that moves at a constant velocity and it net force?
The acceleration of an object with constant velocity is zero. It's force will be Mv^2 where M is it's mass and v is it's velocity.
What happens to the velocity of an object when balanced forces act on it?
The velocity is constant and there is no net or unbalanced force.
What would the net force be on an object moving at constant velocity?
In order for an object to travel with constant velocity the sum of forces acting on it must be zero
Does an object have net force if it is motionless?
Yes, but the net force is ZERO! If an object is moving at constant velocity, the sum of the forces acting upon it is zero. When an object is motionless, its constant velocity is zero. If at any time the sum of the forces -- sometimes called the net force -- is non-zero, the object will accelerate in the direction of the resultant force.
Is it possible that body is moving with constant velocity but force acting on it is zero?
Yes, in fact, it is necessary. If any net force acts on an object, the velocity will change.Yes, in fact, it is necessary. If any net force acts on an object, the velocity will change.Yes, in fact, it is necessary. If any net force acts on an object, the velocity will change.Yes, in fact, it is necessary. If any net force acts on an object, the velocity will change.
What happens to acceleration if the net force acting on an object increases while the mass of an object stays constant?
If the object was at constant velocity when the net force increased, then it will start to accelerate. If the object was already accelerating when the net force increased, then it will experience an increase in acceleration.
What is the force of an object being moved?
the force is the mass of the object times its acceleration. If it is moving at constant velocity (no acceleration) there is no net force..
What forces maintain constant velocity?
For an object to be in constant motion (i.e. constant velocity), the net force acting on the object must equal 0. For example, if a block was sliding on a friction-less plane at a constant velocity, then no force would be needed to maintain that velocity. If however the plane DID have friction, then a force equal to the force of friction would be needed to maintain 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. =========================
How much force does it take to keep an object move at a constant velocity without friction?
An object moving at constant velocity ... meaning at a constant speed in a straight line ... haszero net force acting on it. That means that if there is any force acting on it, then there must beone or more other forces, all adding up to zero.Not only does it not require any force to keep an object moving with constant velocity, if there isany net force acting on it, then its velocity can't remain constant.
Is the net force zero if the object is not moving?
either not moving or moving with a constant velocity
