What is the effect of balanced and unbalanced forces on an object in terms of gravity inertia and friction?

Unbalanced Forces will try to create Motion (Kinetic Energy), balanced Forces do not result in Motion. Gravity, Inertia, and Friction will all try to resist the Motion of the object....unless the Force is in the direction of the Gravitational attraction, then the affect is additive.


Balanced and unbalanced forces in space?

In space a balanced force is can be anything without a kinetic effect. A balanced force is gravity because it can have a different effect on one side of an object that the other.


How can an object have balanced forces and still move?

If an object is at rest it takes an unbalanced force to get it moving. Also if an object is moving it takes an unbalanced force to stop it. So if an object is in motion, because of some unbalanced force and then, while moving, another force comes in to make the forces balanced this will not be enough to stop it, just keep it from accelerating. This happens when objects are dropped from a great height. At first the force of gravity causes it to pick up velocity (accelerate) as it falls. But as it picks up speed the force of air resistance gets larger and larger. Pretty soon the downward force of gravity is just balanced by the upward force of air resistance. The object continues to fall , but now at constant velocity.


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 the definition of a unbalanced force?

There is no such thing as "an unbalanced force". There are only forces. When two or more separate forces act on the same object, the GROUP of forces may be balanced or unbalanced. If the sizes and directions of all the individual forces add up to zero, then the GROUP of forces is balanced. If one of them changes or goes away, then the GROUP of forces is unbalanced.

How do balanced and unbalanced force affect an objects motion?

The motion in a body depends on the the balanced or unbalanced forces acting on it. If the sum of the forces is 0 then it is a balanced force and produces no motion if the sum of the forces isn't 0 then it is unbalanced force. The body will move in the direction in which the force is applied. That's about it

Is inertia balanced or unbalanced force?

-- "Inertia" is not a force. -- There is no such thing as a single balanced force or a single unbalanced force.

Is a catapult a balanced or unbalanced force?

A catapult is an example of an unbalanced force because it applies a force that is greater than the force of gravity acting on the object being launched. This allows the object to be propelled forward.

Is a hill unbalanced force?

A hill itself is not an unbalanced force, but it can provide a force due to gravity that acts on objects. If an object is on a hill, gravity is pulling it downward, creating a force that may result in unbalanced forces in certain situations.


Is a A child being pushed on a swing a balanced or unbalanced force?

When a child is being pushed on a swing, it is an example of an unbalanced force. The force provided by the push helps to overcome the force of gravity to keep the child swinging.


Is lift an unbalanced force or a balanced force?

Lift can be a balanced force or an unbalanced force. If it is balanced, the airplane will remain at the same altitude. If it is unbalanced, the plane will either rise or fall depending upon the direction of the imbalance.


What is a force that pulls on an object and causes acceleration if not balanced by an opposing force?

Generally it is just called an unbalanced force. A net force is the result of one or more unbalanced forces and results in an acceleration. An example of an unbalanced force is the force of gravity.(which is the answer to a typical quiz question)


What kind of force create movement balanced or unbalanced?

unbalanced


Is a child sitting on a swing a unbalanced or balance force?

A child sitting on a swing is an example of a balanced force. The force of gravity pulling down on the child is balanced by the tension in the swing's ropes pulling up.
