What is netwon1st law?

Objects in motion tend to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Objects at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.


Why is it that when you push a wall it will not move?

because objects move when proper force is acted upon them which works on moving and changing these objects direction.

What are the3 laws of motion?

1. A still object will remain still until acted upon by an outside force. A moving object will remain moving in the same direction with the same speed until acted upon by an outside force. 2. An object will move in the same direction as the force it was acted on by and will not stop even if the force stops 3. All actions have an equal and opposite reaction. Hopefully this helped


What are stationary objects a result of?

inertia - an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force/an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an outside force hoped this answers your question ---> Balanced forces


How did Galileo Aristotle's assertion that a force is needed to keep objects moving?

Galileo came up with the idea of inertia. Not taking Aristotle's view that an object must have a force acting on it to keep moving, Galileo said that an object would move continuously in a straight line as long as no outside forces acted on it.


An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in straight-line motion will remain in straight-line motion unless acted upon by a?

A force, that may come from a collision with ... Another object.


Is it possible for an object to move if the applied force is not an outside force?

A body at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an external (outside) source. Then it will accelerate but when the outside force is removed it will keep moving without any force until acted upon by another outside force. If your question is if it is possible for an object to move from rest with an inside (internal) force, then no, internal forces are equal and opposite causing no movement, as there is no net external force.


State newtons first law?

Newton's first law of motion is often stated as An object at rest stays at rest and anobject in motion stays in motion with thesame speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalancedforceObjects that are in motion will stay in motion unless they are acted upon by an outside force; objects that are not moving will stay still unless they are acted upon by an outside force.


A moving object that is not acted on by an unbalanced force will what?

If an object falls of a shelf how do you know a force as acted on it?

You know a force has acted on the object because the objects velocity has changed as the result of a force, f= mdv/dt.


What best represents the first law of motion?

"The velocity of a body stays constant unless acted upon by an external force." Basically, it takes outside force to speed something up, slow it down, start it moving, and stop it moving.
