An object will accelerate in the direction of what?

An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting on that object.


Is it harder to accelerate a moving object?

No, it is not harder to accelerate a moving object. The initial motion of the object does not affect the force required to accelerate it further. The force required to accelerate an object depends on its mass and the desired acceleration.


A net force causes an object to?

Accelerate, motion is generated by applying force to mass.


A net force greater than zero will cause an object to?

... to accelerate.... to accelerate.... to accelerate.... to accelerate.


In terms of speed and direction in what way can an object accelerate?

an object can accelerate both up and down


How are objects able to accelerate?

When the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.


An object will accelerate in the direction of what force?

An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting upon it. If multiple forces are acting on the object, the net force is the vector sum of all the individual forces, and the object will accelerate in the direction of this net force.


If the net force on an object zero?

... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.


If the net force on an object is zero?

... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.... then it won't accelerate.


Will an object that has a normal force accelerate in the direction of the force?

Yes. If there is an unbalanced force on an object, the object will always accelerate in the direction of the force.


When forces on an object are unbalanced the object wil?

It will accelerate in the direction of the resultant (net) force.


Which is not a way to accelerate an object?

One way to not accelerate an object is by trying to reduce its speed. In physics, a change in speed or in direction is called acceleration. One way not to accelerate an object is to change its name.
