What is the Difference between like and unlike parallel forces?

Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.


How can you calculate parallel force?

Parallel forces are forces acting in parallel lines. If two parallel forces act in same direction, they are called like parallel forces. If two parallel forces act in opposite directions, they are called unlike parallel forces.


What is the force of alteration when current flows in same direction in two parallel wires?

It is the force of attraction


Can a charged particle moved through a magnetic field without experiencing any force?

If the motion of the particle is parallel to the direction of the field, then the force on the particle will be zero. This is an unstable condition, though. Even the slightest deviation from parallel will give a tiny force to the particle, which nudges it farther away from the parallel direction.


A rocket receives lift off due to?

A rocket is able to lift off because of something called thrust. This means if you apply force to one direction, it will also apply force to the opposite direction.


What is the speed and direction of an object called?

Speed with direction is called Velocity


What is an inward force on something moving in a circular path?

That is called a centripetal force. Such a force is required for the constant change in direction related to the circular movement (Newton's Second Law).


What is a vertical force?

The forces acting in a vertical direction or in a straight direction is called vertical force


What is air moving parallel to the ground called?

Horizontal force is motion parallel to the ground.


How an object changes direction when a force is applied to it is called what?

The combined changes in an object's speed and direction when force acts on it is called "acceleration".


When drawing a free body diagram for an object on an inclined surface which way does the friction force point?

if in gravity environment it points opposite to the direction it wants to move. That is the force is uphill, parallel to the inclined surface. due to applied force. Under an applied force, again, it points opposite to the direction it wants to move


What do you call the amount of force placed on something?

That's called the "magnitude of force acting on the object".You can do some things with that information, but not a whole lot,until you also know the direction of the force.
