An unbalanced force can only do one thing: accelerate a mass. This may mean making it change direction, speed up or slow down, begin or stop spinning, cause it to deform or change shape, and many other actions.

What is the unbalanced force on an object when two equal and opposite forces of 3 N act on an object?

When two forces acting on an object are not equal in size, we say that they are unbalanced forces. a stationary object starts to move in the direction of the resultant force. ... a moving object changes speed and/or direction in the direction of the resultant force.

What three ways do unbalanced forces cause an object to change its motion?

speed, slow down or change direction or some combination thereof.


What are three ways in which the velocity of an object ay change when the forces on the object are unbalanced?

-- The speed can increase. -- The speed can decrease. -- The path can bend from a straight line. Each of these is an example of 'acceleration'.


When two forces act on an object what three things can change?

There are more than three possible changes. Some of them are:The object is crushed.The object is stretched.The object undergoes a shear distortion.Nothing happens: the object is more resistant than the forces acting on it.


What are three different examples of forces?

balanced force, unbalanced force, and net force


What three ways in which the velocity of an object may change when the forces on the object are unbalanced?

doing some homework? A net force vector/imbalance can either increase velocity (positive acceleration), decrease velocity (negative acceleration) or effect zero acceleration (perpendicular).

Can an object be moving at a constant speed if three forces are acting on the object?

Sure, as long as the sum of the forces is zero.


What three forces cause an object to change its motion?

The three forces that causes an object to change its motion are the gravitational force, the normal force and the frictional force.
