An outside force, gravity, pulls the car down the ramp building up speed. At the bottom of the ramp law 1 kicks in. The car continues to move in a straight line.

A force is needed to change the motion of an object?

Yes, an unbalanced force is needed to change the motion of an object.If an unbalanced force does not act on an object it will continue to maintain its state of motion (either in motion or at rest), not considering the effect of frictional force. This is basically Newtons first law of motion.


What two forces act on a boat?

upthrust & newtons


What will happen to an object at rest if no unbalanced forced act on it according to Newtons First Law?

An object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move with a constant velocity in a straight line if no unbalanced forces act on it, according to Newton's First Law of Motion.


What is the principle of newtons third law of motion?

Newton's Third Law states that if an object "A" acts on an object "B" with a certain force, then object "B" will act on object "A" with the same force (but in the opposite direction).


When forces act in opposite direction?

When two equal forces act in opposite directions, they are called balanced forces, and no motion takes place. If they are unequal, than the weakest force is cancelled out, along with an equal amount of the strongest force. For example, if an object is being pushed on opposite sides with 7 and 10 newtons of force, then the 7 newton force will be entirely cancelled out, along with 7 newtons of the 10 newton force. This will leave a net force of 3 newtons acting on the object. If there is a net force (also called an unbalanced force), then motion will take place.


What is the meaning of - To work smarter know the difference between motion and direction?

Motion is the act of moving. Direction is the act of motion in a said locations.


How would you define the term motion?

Motion is the act of moving.


For an object to stay in motion what has to act on it?

Nothing. The natural tendency of an object in motion, is to stay in motion.


Does Friction act in the direction of motion?

No.


What has to act on an object for it to stay in motion?

An external force must act on an object for it to remain in motion. According to Newton's first law of motion, an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.


Two forces act on the same object. One force is pushing due east with a force of 6 newtons and the other is pushing due north at 8 newtons. What is the resulting force?

10 newtons NE. a little more north than east


In newtons third law the action and reaction forces?

The two forces are of the same magnitude, act in opposite directions, and act on different objects.
