As defined by Isaac newton, force equals mass times acceleration.
What else can I help you with?
How do you Restate newtons first law in terms of acceleration?
By saying that the acceleration is zero.
What does it mean when there are active and reactive forces?
Active forces are physical forces that create motion or an acceleration in a system, such as pushing or pulling. Reactive forces are the equal and opposite forces that result from the interaction of active forces, as described by Newton's third law of motion. Together, active and reactive forces explain the dynamics of objects in motion.
Balanced forces do not cause what?
Balanced forces do not cause changes in an object's motion or acceleration. When two forces are balanced, their magnitudes and directions cancel each other out, resulting in no net force acting on the object.
Is it true when balanced forces act on an object the object speeds up starts to move slows down stops or changes direction?
Yes, of course if there is force there is acceleration.
When the net forces acting on an object sum to zero then the object is acceleration?
When the net forces acting on an object sum to zero then the object's acceleration is zero.
Positive acceleration differ from negative acceleration?
Yes. Mathematically, they have opposite signs. So they are opposing vectors. In terms of physics, they represent the effects of forces acting in opposite directions.
What is does a horizontal line mean on a speed time graph?
It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.
How do unbalanced forces acting on an object affects it's motions?
Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).
Acceleration is caused by any forces?
Roughly speaking, acceleration is caused by destroying the balance of forces on an object.
What is time dependent forces?
Time dependent forces mean that a force changes, and is not constant. Therefore, acceleration of an object is also not constant if the force is changing.
How do unbalanced forces acting on an object its motion?
Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).
If forces are unbalanced is there acceleration?
yes, since the forces are acting on just one body, the mass (m) in the equation F=ma is not changing, which would mean that the two accelerations (a) would have to be different. If the two accelerations are different then there is total acceleration in one direction (the resultant acceleration).
Is acceleration caused by two forces which are opposite to each other?
No, acceleration is caused by an imbalance of forces acting on an object. If the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, they will cancel out and there will be no acceleration. Acceleration occurs when there is a net force acting on an object.
Why acceleration of pendulum is zero at the mean position?
The acceleration of a pendulum at the mean position is zero because the force of gravity acting on the pendulum's mass is balanced by the tension in the string. When the pendulum is at its mean position, the forces acting on it are equal and opposite, resulting in a net force of zero and therefore zero acceleration.
How to calculate the acceleration in terms of g's for an object in free fall?
To calculate the acceleration in terms of g's for an object in free fall, divide the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2) by the acceleration of the object. This will give you the acceleration in terms of g's, where 1 g is equal to the acceleration due to gravity.
Is acceleration the result of balanced and unbalanced force?
Acceleration is the result of unbalanced forces acting on an object. When the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, there is a net force that causes the object to accelerate. Balanced forces, on the other hand, result in no acceleration as the forces cancel each other out.
What is sedimentation in chemical engineering terms?
In chemical engineering terms, sedimentation refers to the tendency for the particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained, and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them: these forces can be due to gravity, centrifugal acceleration or electromagnetism.
