An object have the ability to stay at rest or move true or false?

False. If it is at rest then it cannot spontaneously move and, conversely, if it is moving, it cannot come to rest all by itself. There must be some external force causing that change.

What effect does friction have when you are trying to move an object at rest?
It provides static friction, so the object cannot move until the static friction is overcome.
What cause an object to move?
Newton said an object at rest will tend to stay at rest until acted upon by an external force. An object is moved when another force is applied to it. Whether it be from change in potential energy or just direct change in momentum, another force is necessary to move an object at rest.
How do balanced and unbalanced forces affect an object at rest?
they cause the object to move with acceleration given by A nett force.
What is momentum the measure of?
If an object is at rest it has inertia, which has to be overcome to make it move. When an object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed it has momentum, which must be overcome to slow or stop the object
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.
- true or false an object with no force on it must be at rest?
false
Is it true or false that Galileo believe that the natural state of an object was to be at rest?
No
What term is defined as the ability of an object at rest to stay at rest and an object in motion to stay in motion?
inertia
Any time the forces are balanced an object will remain at rest true of false?
false
Compare how balanced and unbalanced forces affect an object at rest?
balanced forces don't move an object, but unbalanced forces on an object do move
What kind of force is required when an object is moved at rest?
To move an object that is at rest, you must overcome all other forces that are acting on the object, such as friction.
Can the property of inertia state that an object at rest will tend to start moving?
False
A moving object with no forces acting on it will?
Continue to move along its path. "An object in motion tends to stay in motion and an object at rest, tends to stay at rest."
Is it true that the property of inertia states that if an object is at rest it will tend to start moving?
false
What force can cause an object at rest to move or it can accelerate an object that is already moving?
Any force.
In order to move an object at rest you must make sure the forces acting on that object are?
unbalanced
In order to move an object at rest you must make sure the forces acting on that object are what?
unbalanced
