What happens to a moving object with zero nets force acting on it?
Certainly. Say you have an object that has been falling through the air for a long time, say a skydiver. After falling for a long time, the skydiver will fall at a constant velocity. This is called terminal velocity, and this is when the air resistance pushing up around the skydiver is equal to the force of gravity pulling the skydiver down. The skydiver is not accelerating. By using F= ma, with zero acceleration, there is zero net force. The skydiver is moving as if there are no forces acting on the skydiver.
If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced the net force is not what?
The net force is unbalanced, so the OVERALL force cannot be 0.
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.
What does net force mean in physics?
the overall force acting on an object
What is an overall force acting on an object?
The overall force acting on an object is the sum of all of the forces acting on it. This is usually easy to work out if you remember that force is a vector so direction of each force has to be taken into account.
What difference of force and net force?
force is a push or pull. net force is the overall force on an object.

The overall force on an object after all the force are added together is called the?
accelerating force
The overall force acting on an object is called?
net force
If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced the net force is not what?
The net force is unbalanced, so the OVERALL force cannot be 0.

A(n) force is the overall force on an object after all the forces are added together.?
force
The overall force of an object after all the forces are added together is called the?
Net Force.
When a cat sleep on a table the net force on it is?
Net force is defined as the overall force acting on an object. When a cat sleeps on a table, the net force on it is zero. When a body is at rest the net force acting on the body is zero.
