The application of force on object (without opposing forces) results in acceleration in the direction of the vector. In this case the unbalanced force to the left will accelerate the object to the right.

What happens if an unbalanced force is applied to an object?

When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the weight of the object decreases.


What changes when an unbalanced force acts upon an object?

There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force". When the entire group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates, in the direction of the vector sum of the forces.


How do unbalanced forces affect motion?

-- An unbalanced group of forces on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction of the net force. -- If an object is not moving, then the group of forces on it must be balanced, else it would be accelerated.


How does force affect the motion of an object?

If you apply force to an object, you accelerate it. If you apply the force in the direction that the object is moving, you speed it up. If you apply it in the opposite direction, you slow it down. If you apply the force in another direction than the object is moving in you will change the direction of the objects motion. The amount of acceleration is given by a = F/m where a is acceleration, F is force and m is the mass of the object.


An unbalanced force can cause an object to change its speed and or?

The object will speed up, slow down or change direction. An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. ... If however, the forces are balanced (in equilibrium) and there is no net force, the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant.

When do you say that the force is unbalanced?

When an object accelerates, the force is unbalanced.


What happens when you have unbalanced forces acting on an object?

When an unbalanced force acts on an object the?

Then one force is overcoming another force, and the object moves.


What changes occur in position direction and speed of an object when it is acted on by an unbalanced force?

the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the net disbalanced force and occurs in the direction in which the force acts - (newton's 2nd law) basically, it accelerates in the direction of the net force acting on the body.


What does unbalanced force do to an object?

The forces cause the object to move in the direction of the net force. If there are two unbalanced forces in opposite directions, the object will go in the direction of the stronger force.


When an unbalanced force acts on an object the change in the object's or depends on the size and direction of the force.?

When an unbalanced force acts on an object, it will cause the object to accelerate in the direction of the force. The greater the force applied, the greater the acceleration of the object. The direction of the force will determine the direction of the object's motion.


When forces on an object are unbalanced the object wil?

It will accelerate in the direction of the resultant (net) force.


What does the unbalanced force exerted on object at rest?

When an object is at rest, the forces acting upon it are balanced - there are no unbalanced forces.


What happens to the motion of an object when an unbalanced force acts on it?

The object accelerates in the direction that the greater force is pushing or pulling it.any object is acted upon by an unbalanced force will make the object move with the unbalanced force as there is not the right amount of the other force to stop it.if they were balanced forces the object would find equilibrium and would end up basically being held in one place, or travel on one vector without changing course.As for an object under the effect of unbalanced forces? It would NOT behave like the one described above. that is all that could be said.The object accelerates in the direction of the 'net' force ... the vector sum of allof the individual forces. The rate of acceleration is proportional to the magnitudeof the net force.It (the motion) is changed.(Your last it being the object ... I hope).when an unbalanced force act on a moving object, the velocity of the object will change.When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the object will accelerate. This is a fundamental law of physics that goes back to Newton. Further, the object will move in the direction of the unbalanced force.We know that force is equal to mass times acceleration (F = m x a). If force is applied, the object is accelerated in the direction that the force moves it. If force increases, the object will accelerate more because acceleration must also increase.There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".When the group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, then the objectaccelerates, in the direction of the vector sum of the forces.


When the force on an object is unbalanced what three changes may occur in the objects velocity?

When the force on an object is unbalanced, the object's velocity may change in magnitude, in direction, or both. The object may accelerate in the direction of the unbalanced force, decelerate, or change its direction of motion.


What always happens to the motion of an object when unbalanced forces act on it?

There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".When the group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, then the objectaccelerates, in the direction of the vector sum of the forces.
