What will knowing the net force on an object tell about the forces on the object?
Knowing the net for will tell you various things, including the direction, speed, and acceleration.
What can the changes in a objects position tell you about the forces acting on the object?
Since any object's acceleration is proportional to the net force on the object, the object's motion will tell you about the net force on it, i.e., the vector sum of all forces acting on the object. However, you will not be able to tell anything about the individual forces unless there is only one.
If the forces on an object is balanced what does it tell you about the size and direction of the force?
It tells us that the sizes of forces are equal and directions of forces are opposite.
Why is it useful to know the net force?
You must know the the direction so then you know if you either subtract or add. For example , if the the direction of the force is in opposite then you would have to subract each net force.
How can you tell if the force on an object are balanced?
If the object is not moving, or is traveling at a constant velocity, all forces acting on the object are equal and opposite to each other. If the object is accelerating (speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction) the forces are not balanced.
Name three ways that a force can affect an object?
Three forces are Pull ,push and twist . This tell me that the three forces are pull and push and twist anda scanciey answere shdcuedhcuehcuehucheucijreivjerivjrijvirjvirjv.
How do unbalanced forces affect an object's speed?
Newton's Laws of Motion tell us that the velocity of a body remains constant unless subject to a force. If there are more than one force acting, it will be the net force that causes any change in velocity. So in the case where the forces are balanced, nothing will change, but note you must be sure the forces are balanced in direction as well as magnitude. In fact what you have to do is evaluate the net force as a vector quantity. If the forces are in fact unbalanced this means there is a net force in a certain direction, and this will act on the body, in that direction. (Force = mass x acceleration)
What are common features of all non-contact forces?
Non-contact force are the force that can cause or change motion of an object without actually touching it. Few examples are--- Gravity of the earth, Magnetic forces etc.Hope you got the answer,Cheers!
How can you tell if a force is balanced or unbalanced by looking at it?
2 Forces are unbalanced when an object that is not moving starts moving or changes speed or direction. Balanced forces are the opposite they are where an object that is not moving stays still or an object that is moving stays at a constant pace.
Why is the reading on the spring scale equal to the friction force in each case?
A scale is a force indicator. The reading on a scale is simply telling you what force is being applied. If you try dragging an object across the floor using a spring scale, you are applying a force to the spring scale which is applying a force to the object. The spring scale cannot put more force on the object than you are putting on the scale, and it has to put all of the force that you put on it on the object you are pulling. The only other force on the object besides your pulling force is friction. If the object is traveling at a constant velocity, the forces on it are equal. That means that your pulling force has to equal the force of friction. The scale that you are using will read the amount of force you are putting on the object which will tell you how much friction is pulling backwards on the object because these forces are equal strengths.
How can you tell when balanced forces are acting on an object?
It will stop moving.
How do you find the output force of an object?
I'm not sure how to tell you how to find the output force of an object, any suggestions?
