Yes. If an object is at rest or in a linear motion state at constant speed, the net force applied onto the object is zero.

If the net force on an object is 0 is the net torque 0?

Not necessarily. The net force being 0 means the object is in translational equilibrium, but the net torque can still be non-zero if there are unbalanced forces causing rotation.


How will an object move if it is acted on by a positive net torque and force of zero?

A torque will make it rotate - or change its rotation.


If a non zero net force acts on an object what does the object do?

-- When the net force on an object is not zero, the object undergoes accelerated motion.-- The magnitude of the acceleration is the ratio of the net force to the object's mass.-- The direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of the net force.


How do you calculate the net torque acting on an object?

To calculate the net torque acting on an object, you multiply the force applied to the object by the distance from the point of rotation. The formula is: Net Torque Force x Distance.


When torque has no net torque what is it called?

In that case, you can say that:* The net torque is zero, or equivalently that * The sum (vector sum, to be precise) of all the torques is zero.


What are the five conditions to maintain equilibrium?

The net force acting on the object must be zero. The net torque acting on the object must be zero. The object must not be accelerating. The object must be in a stable position. The object must have no external disturbances acting on it.


What happens to an object which is activated upon by a net force which is not zero?

If the net force is not zero then the object will move in the direction of the greater force.


What is the net force or the resultant force acting on an object in equilibrium?

0. An object in equilibrium has constant velocity, which makes its acceleration 0. Since net force=mass times acceleration, this would make the net force zero. Note that there could be multiple forces acting on the object, but since it is in equilibrium they would have to be equal and opposite in direction, to cancel all of the forces out. This would make the net force zero.


What is the net force on an object when the force on that object are balanced?

Zero.


What will happen to an object when the net force is not zero?

When the net force on an object is not zero, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force. The acceleration of the object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it, as described by Newton's second law (F=ma).


What kind of force is exerted on an object with a net force of zero?

Zero


What are the conditions for an object to be equilibrium?

For an object to be in equilibrium, the sum of all forces acting on it must be zero. This means that both the net force and net torque must be zero. In other words, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity.
