What else can I help you with?
If a body is moving with constant velocity is it moving with constant acceleration?
An object moves with constant velocity when there is no net force acting upon it. If there are no forces acting on an object, or if the forces acting on it "cancel out" leaving a net force of zero acting on the object, it will have zero acceleration. With a zero acceleration, the velocity of the object will be constant.
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.
Unbalanced forces acting on an object produce motion?
Yes, unbalanced forces cause acceleration according to Newton's second law of motion. When the forces acting on an object are not equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, the object will accelerate in the direction of the stronger force.
If the net force is zero is the force balanced or unbalanced?
The the forces are unbalanced, that means that the net force is non-zero.
When forces are balanced compare the acceleration of an object at rest and an object in motion?
When forces are balanced, the object at rest will remain at rest, while the object in motion will continue to move at a constant velocity. This is due to Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object will remain at rest or in motion with constant velocity unless acted on by an unbalanced external force.
What does the term balance mean?
If you add up all the forces acting on an object, they are balanced if they equal zero. (They cancel each other out). If the forces acting on a object are balanced, then the acceleration of that object is zero. It may still be moving, but it is not accelerating. An object that is not accelerating, (the sum of the forces acting on it is zero), is in equilibrium.
What causes acceleration. two forces acting opposite each?
If there is acceleration, there must be an unbalanced force. That is, the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is not zero. It may be a single force, or several forces that don't add up to zero.
If a body is moving with constant velocity is it moving with constant acceleration?
An object moves with constant velocity when there is no net force acting upon it. If there are no forces acting on an object, or if the forces acting on it "cancel out" leaving a net force of zero acting on the object, it will have zero acceleration. With a zero acceleration, the velocity of the object will be constant.
What is the difference between an object that has no force acting on it and an object that has a zero net force acting on it?
An object with no force acting on it means that there are no forces present at all, while an object with a zero net force means that the forces acting on it are balanced, resulting in no acceleration. In the second case, there may be individual forces present but their combination results in a net force of zero.
When the forces acting on an object are unbalanced the net force is zero true or false?
The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body.
What happens to an object when forces acting on an object are balanced?
Balanced force -> Zero net force -> Zero acceleration (stays at rest or constant velocity)
What is a zero net force?
A zero net force occurs when all forces acting on an object balance out, resulting in no overall acceleration or movement of the object. This means that the object remains at rest or continues moving at a constant velocity.
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.
When the forces acting on an object are balanced the net force on the object is?
This is called balanced forces and no acceleration is present.
If the netforce on an object is zero then the object has?
If the net force on an object is zero, then the object is in either equilibrium (if it was at rest initially) or it is moving at a constant velocity (if it was already moving). This means there is a balance of forces acting on the object in opposite directions.
What are the forces acting on an object without acceleration?
The net force that is acting on an object that is not changing speed is centripetal force that is pulling the object into a circular path. However, just to be clear on this point, while the object's "speed" is not changing, it's "velocity" certainly is, because velocity, unlike speed, has a directional component to it.
What type of force does an object have if its net force is equal to zero?
If the net force on an object is zero, we can say that the forces are balanced, or that they are in equilibrium(which really means the same thing). There may be forces acting on the object, but there is an equal and opposite force pushing or pulling in the opposite direction, and all the forces balance out. Alternatively, there may be no forces acting on the object at all.
