speed it up

slow it down

and change direction.

Forces can: - Cause and acceleration o Speeding up o Slowing down o Change direction - Do nothing - Cause work (w = Fd) - Ie. Change shape

A force causes an object to change position?

Yes, a force can cause an object to move, or to change its speed or direction. A net force that is non-zero is one that acts in this manner, and it represents the "sum" of the forces acting on an object. If the net force on an object is not zero, it is some number, and this represents a force that will act on an object to accelerate it.


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.


2 examples of applied forces causes change in the shape of the object?

When the force is a balanced force there is no movement. So when the balanced force is acted upon an object that is malleable, the object will change shape to accommodate the force since it cannot move. just to restate it a different way Basically it must be a balanced force to change an object's shape. In the case that the object is malleable the object will change shape until more force is necessary to change it's shape. example if two boys use the same neuton of force


Force causing an object to start moving?

what starts to move an object is force because it's pushing on the object and what stop's the obect from moveing is force too because if the force is going the oppisit way its going to stop the object.


Can forces make an object move faster or slower or change its direction?

Yes, forces do all of these things. A force changes the velocity of an object, and is the only thing that can change the velocity of an object.

What kind of force can change an object's position?

The force that can change an object's position is an unbalanced force.


What force can change the object?

Force can change the acceleration of an object a =F/m.


Can a force change a mass of an object?

No, a force cannot change the mass of an object. Mass is an intrinsic property of an object that remains constant regardless of the force applied to it. The force can change the object's velocity or acceleration, but not its mass.


How does a force affect an object?

A force causes an object to change its motion by accelerating or decelerating it. The direction and magnitude of the force determine how the object will move. If the force is unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the force.


If a force is applied to an object the object's will change?

If a force is applied to an object, the object's motion will change according to Newton's second law of motion. The object will accelerate in the direction of the force applied.


Can forces change an object motiin?

Yes, forces can change an object's motion. When a force is applied to an object, it can cause the object to accelerate, decelerate, or change direction. The change in motion is determined by the magnitude and direction of the force applied.


What is the relationship between force an momentum?

Force is the rate of change of momentum. When a force acts on an object, it causes the object's momentum to change. The greater the force applied, the greater the change in momentum experienced by the object.


Can a unbalanced force change an objects motion?

Yes, an unbalanced force can change an object's motion by causing it to accelerate or decelerate in the direction of the force. It can also change the object's direction or speed depending on the magnitude and direction of the force applied.


What does force change in an object?

Force can change an object's speed, direction, shape, and temperature. When a force is applied to an object, it can cause the object to move, accelerate, deform, or heat up, depending on the nature of the force and the properties of the object.


Can force change an object?

Yes, force can change an object's motion or shape. For example, applying a force can make an object move, stop, or change direction. It can also deform an object by stretching, compressing, or bending it.


Does the total force on an object determine the change in the object's motion?

The total vector force on an object determines the change in its velocity. That change is also known as acceleration.


What is an force that can cause an object to change its speed and direction.?

A basic physics answer for this is that a net force (or unbalanced force) will cause an object to accelerate, that is, cause the object to change its speed and/or direction.
