What else can I help you with?
When an object is in rest all the forces acting on it are in what?
All the forces acting on each other are in equilibrium. For instance the restoring force upward from the ground/floor is equal to the strength of the force of gravity, which acts downwards.
Are resultant forces acting in different directions equal?
No, resultant forces acting in different directions are not equal. The resultant force is the net force that results from combining all the individual forces acting on an object, taking into account their direction and magnitude.
What is the net force on a system equal to the sum of?
The net force on a system is equal to the sum of all the individual forces acting on the system.
Are net forces and unbalanced forces the same thing?
Net force is the sum of all forces that act on an object. An unbalanced force means that net force is not equal to zero. If that is the case, the object will accelerate.Net force is the sum of all forces that act on an object. An unbalanced force means that net force is not equal to zero. If that is the case, the object will accelerate.Net force is the sum of all forces that act on an object. An unbalanced force means that net force is not equal to zero. If that is the case, the object will accelerate.Net force is the sum of all forces that act on an object. An unbalanced force means that net force is not equal to zero. If that is the case, the object will accelerate.
What is called two forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are?
Two forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are called balanced forces.
Can a plane fly when all the forces are equal?
well it will need to make the forces unequal to take off, but yes it can fly with them all equal.
What is forces equilibrium at a point?
When the (vector) sum of all forces equal zero.
What does it mean if a cell is in the equilibrium?
It means that all forces acting on it are equal.
If all forces are equal and opposite how does anything accelerate?
Because NOT all forces are equal and opposite. By Newton's Third Law, if object A attracts object B, then object B also attracts object A - with an equal but opposite force. But those forces act on DIFFERENT objects! The forces on object A, and on object B, may be unbalanced!Because NOT all forces are equal and opposite.

What are unbalanced forces and what?
Balanced forces describes when all forces on an object are equal. Unbalanced forces describes when the forces on an object are unequal, resulting in movement. Forces are balanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is zero, at which point the object will be at rest or be in motion with constant velocity. Forces are unbalanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is greater or less than zero, at which point the object will accelerate by either starting motion from rest, or changing its motion if it is already in motion, for example, by changing direction or speed.
When an object is in rest all the forces acting on it are in what?
All the forces acting on each other are in equilibrium. For instance the restoring force upward from the ground/floor is equal to the strength of the force of gravity, which acts downwards.
What is it when forces on an object are equal?
When forces on a body are equal, the body stays still. The forces have to be equal in strength but the direction of application should be exactly opposite.
Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are called unbalanced forces?
Actually, forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are called balanced forces. Unbalanced forces are forces that are not equal in size and/or opposite in direction, resulting in a change in an object's motion.
How do you equal and opposite forces acting on objects can produce vastly different accelerations?
They can't. The vector sum of equal and opposite forces is zero, and they can't produce any acceleration at all.
Are resultant forces acting in different directions equal?
No, resultant forces acting in different directions are not equal. The resultant force is the net force that results from combining all the individual forces acting on an object, taking into account their direction and magnitude.
Why are forces equal and opposite?
Forces are not always equal and opposite. This question needs to be rewritten.
What must the net force equal if all forces acting on the object are balanced?
Zero
