You need to look at the net force... which is the resultant of all the forces... if there is a net force then there will be an acceleration and therefore the object will move..
however there can be many forces acting on a single object but as long as those are in equilibrium then the object will not move...
so to answer your question: a force does not always cause things to move...
also.. a thing can be moving without a force... see newtons first law..
What else can I help you with?
Why do you need to use force to move a ball up a ramp when it moves downward by itself?
The force of gravity makes the ball move downward. To move it upward, you need to supply enough force to compensate for this (to stop the downward motion) plus a little extra (to cause the ball to move upward).
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.
Which of these uses the force of gravity to make it move?
Which of these uses the force of gravity to make it move
How do balanced and unbalanced forces affect the motion of an object?
Objects move according to their net force, or the total amount of force acting on them. Balanced forces are just that, balanced. An object with balanced forces will not move because the opposing forces will cancel each other out. However, if there are unbalanced forces, the object will move in accordance with the force that is greater. When moving though, there is always friction. Whether you be underwater, on the ground, or in the air there is always friction on the Earth. (Besides vacuums, of course.) Force is equal to mass x acceleration. With that you can find the forces of the object if you know its mass and acceleration.
What happens when the speed of a stream increases?
Things that would cause a stream to move faster would be how large the stream is, how much material is in the stream and how much of a slope the stream is at. Things blocking the stream would also cause it to move slower.
Can force always cause objects to move?
Force is necessary to change the motion of an object, but it may not always cause an object to move. If the force is balanced by an equal and opposite force, the object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity.
Does applying a force always cause a change in position?
no... if a force is not great enough to overcome the static friction then the object will not move also if the force is directly perpendicular to the surface, provided its solid, the object is on it wont move
What is the force that causes things to move in space?
A force can cause an object to move if the amount of the force in the direction of movement is larger than the Frictional force of the object against the object on which it rests, and can overcome its Inertia.
What force makes it harder to move things?
Friction makes it harder to move things.
How does friction move things?
Friction does not move things. Friction is the force that opposes motion between two objects that are touching. Not enough friction allows for things to move, depending on what kind of friction; the less force it has.
Can a force act to cause an object at rest to move?
An example of force being used to move a stationary object is when you push a door open.
What can make things move or change?
Force
What can make matter move or change?
Matter can move or change if it experiences a force. Forces are interactions that can cause the position or motion of an object to change. These forces can come from factors like gravity, electromagnetism, or applied external forces.
What is a Force that doesn't move?
A force that doesn't move is known as a static force. This type of force acts on an object but doesn't cause it to move. An example of a static force is the force of gravity pulling an object downward when it is placed on the ground.
What force makes things move?
Any force can be used to make something move. It is kind of the nature of forces.
What cause the boat to move?
the pressure and force of the water.
Does an uncharged oject always move towards a charged object?
They don't always move, but there's always a force of attraction between them.
