When the 'net' force on an object is zero, then either there are no forces
acting on it, or else all the forces acting on it are 'balanced', and they have
the same effect on it as if there were no force.
unbalanced force
Such a force is called Equilibriant...
balanced
Balanced forces
A force, or several forces that don't all cancel each other.
It means that the vector sum of all forces acting on an object is not zero - if there is more than one force, the vectors don't cancel each other completely. In this case, there will be an acceleration.
Forces that cancel each other out are coplanar, all reside in the same plane.
Yes, whether an object will move or stay stationary in its place, or move in contant velocity depends on the NET force that is acting on it. * If there is a balanced force, ( all forces cancel each other out) , then the object will not move, or stay moving at a constant velocity (a=0) * If there is an unbalanced force, (forces donot cancel), then the object will move.
Balanced forces
All forces acting on it cancel out.
Balanced forces
If the sum of all forces acting upon an object is not zero, then the object will accelerate. (Newton's first law)
Yes, as long as all of the forces cancel out.
Balanced forces
A force, or several forces that don't all cancel each other.
If you add up all the forces acting on an object, they are balanced if they equal zero. (They cancel each other out). If the forces acting on a object are balanced, then the acceleration of that object is zero. It may still be moving, but it is not accelerating. An object that is not accelerating, (the sum of the forces acting on it is zero), is in equilibrium.
Forces that cancel each other out are coplanar, all reside in the same plane.
It means that the vector sum of all forces acting on an object is not zero - if there is more than one force, the vectors don't cancel each other completely. In this case, there will be an acceleration.
In the middle of the earth is where an object has the lightest weight. The weight is zero. The reason is that the mass of the object is pulled equally in all directions so all the forces cancel out.
Yes, whether an object will move or stay stationary in its place, or move in contant velocity depends on the NET force that is acting on it. * If there is a balanced force, ( all forces cancel each other out) , then the object will not move, or stay moving at a constant velocity (a=0) * If there is an unbalanced force, (forces donot cancel), then the object will move.
