During the time, you're pushing it, the forces are unbalanced. Once you stop, they are balanced. Unbalanced forces result in a change in motion, even if it is slowing it to a stop. Balanced forces produce no change.

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.


Breifly describe how applying the brakes to stop a bicycle is an example of force?

The brakes apply force to the wheel, causing friction which stops it.


The force that opposes the motion of an object?

Gravity. The inertia of an object will keep it moving until an opposing force stops it.Friction.Called inertia. To accelerate a body the force is mass times acceleration. No force = no acceleration. People say " the force is opposed by the massacceleration"


How do you know if a guy cums or not?

well im a 14 year old guy but my anwser would be if he stops suddenly and groans or something and you feel something drip then he did


What must happen in order for motion to occur?

I think there has to be a net force applied to the object in order for it to move. An example would be a box sitting on the ground. There is always gravity acting on the box, pushing it down, but there is also a force called the Normal force, applied by the ground on the box pointing up against gravity. These 2 forces, gravity and normal, cancel each other out perfectly, therefore the box does not move either up or down, it is stationary. Now if a person goes up to one side of the box, and pushes it horizontally, the box may begin to move if the force applied is greater than the friction between the box and the ground (i forget the name of the specific friction involved). As the box moves, there is also a constant friction between the box and the ground that pushes back against the direction of motion of the box. This friction would cause the box to stop moving once the person stops pushing, preventing the box from sliding on forever. ( i know some parts are vague in this, and im open to criticisms and corrections :P )

Is pushing a box across the floor until it stops a unbalanced or balanced force?

well it dipends because if its a balanced force there wouldn't be change in movement and if its unbalanced force there would be some types of change of movement. i hope this made you realize the answer

A seat belt helps you when your car stops suddenly by providing?

The seat belt makes an balance forward force because when the car stops you fall forward and the seat belt makes it so the force in your body stays balanced. So it becomes an balanced forward force.


Is a skateboard slowing down while going up a ramp a balanced or unbalanced force?

Unbalanced because the kinetic energy of the scateboard will be greater than the forces of friction and gravity until the scateboard stops. When the scate board stops it is a balanced force .


What happens if you start something moving and no force stops it?

It continues to move.


What is it when gravity and speed are balanced?

I assume you mean when the acceleration of gravity stops altering the velocity of a falling object. At this point the force of air friction is equal but opposite to the force of gravity, velocity stops increasing in magnitude. This is called "terminal velocity."


What starts an object moving or stops it if it's already 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.


Which force is responsible when a bicycle comes to a sudden stop?

Unless it stops on account of having run into something - friction.


What force slows a marble rolling flat on a surface?

The force that slows a marble rolling on a flat surface is friction. Because friction is what stops something when it's moving. Like when you throw a ball, it starts going slower, and slower, and slower, until it stops. Why? Well you know a force is involved in something like this! But what kind? It's called: Friction!


Which force stops a train when the brakes are applied?

Kinetic friction is the force that stops a train when the brakes are applied


What is it called when friction stops something from moving?

The frictional force needed to just stop something from moving is called limiting friction, and the object is said to be in limiting equilibrium.
