What is the tendency of moving object to continue moving in a straight line?
An object at rest will tend to stay at rest and an object in motion will tend to stay in motion until an exterbal force acts on it is called INERTIA.
Is it true that an object moving at a constant speed in a straight path will continue to do so until a net force acts upon it?
Yes, that's true. That's known as "inertia", or "Newton's First Law".
Can an object be in motion if no external forces acting on it?
To make a body move from rest, external force is necessary. Once it starts moving, it will continue to do so until external forces act on it. So for an object to be in motion no force is required.
If you know the constant velocity of a moving object what can you predict?
You can predict its motion until some force acts on it.
If an object is not moving it will not move until?
It will not until an unbalanced force acts on it. Another force is used against it creating an equal and opposite reaction.(Newton's Third Law)
An object moving at a constant velocity will?
... continue to do that, until a force is exerted on it.
A force can make moving objects?
A force will cause a moving object to continue moving. It will also cause the object to move farther and faster until friction slows it down.
What is the tendency of moving object to continue moving in a straight line?
An object at rest will tend to stay at rest and an object in motion will tend to stay in motion until an exterbal force acts on it is called INERTIA.
What keeps a moving object moving until a force gets in it way?
Momentum.
What is n object that will remain at rest until some force causes it to move and a moving object will continue acted by some outside forces?
Any and all matter.
Does a moving object travel in a line until a force changes its direction?
Yes. A moving object travels in a straight line at constant speed until a net force acts on it. However, the direction will only change if the force is in a different direction then the motion.
What is another name for newtons law?
the name for newton's third law is the law of inertia. it states that an object that is moving will keep in motion unless an outside force acts upon it and an object at rest will continue to be at rest until an outside force acts upon it.
What opposes the motion of one object moving past another?
Friction opposes the motion of one object moving past another. Objects at rest remain at rest and objects traveling at a steady rate in a straight line continue that way until a force acts on them.
What happens if the sum of all the forces acting on a moving object is zero?
Then the object will not accelerate (if it is stationary, then it will remain stationary, if it is already moving it will continue to move at the same velocity until a force begins to act on it).
What is the meaning of Isaac Newtons first law of motion?
newton's 1st law: an object at rest(not moving) will stay at rest until a force acts on it. similarly,an object that is moving will keep moving in a straight line at constant speed until a force acts on it.
What is another name for newton's first law?
the name for newton's third law is the law of inertia. it states that an object that is moving will keep in motion unless an outside force acts upon it and an object at rest will continue to be at rest until an outside force acts upon it.
Is it true that according to Newton's first law of motion any object moving at a constant speed in a straight path will continue to do so until a net force acts upon it?
yes its true
