What else can I help you with?
Can an object be moving but still have a net force of zero?
Yes, an object can be moving at a constant velocity (i.e., moving with no acceleration) and have a net force of zero. This occurs when the forces acting on the object are balanced, such as when an object is in equilibrium.
Is an object in motion if the acceleration is zero?
Acceleration just means that something is getting faster at a constant pace. If the object was at rest it would have a constant velocity. If the object was then acted upon by and unbalanced force, the velocity would change and no longer be constant. However if an object is just moving along (balanced force of air resistance, gravity, and friction) then it would be at a constant velocity, also. In motion or at rest and object can have zero acceration.
Can and object be moving and still be in equilibrium?
yes
When an object slows down it has no acceleration?
When an object slows down it is still accelerating.
How can an object be accelerating if it's slowing down?
Acceleration doesn't mean "speeding up". It only means that the speed or direction of motion, or both, are changing. Speeding up is positive acceleration in the direction you're moving. Slowing down is negative acceleration in the direction you're moving, or positive acceleration in the opposite direction.

How can an object have zero acceleration?
i am ten so this will be a wimpy answer. it is an object that has nothing to propel it and therefor it has no acceleration. see wimpy Actually the above is wrong because an object can still be moving but it is accelerating only when there is a change in speed or direction. A car moving at a constant speed of 50 m/h is not accelerating however we can agree that it is still moving.
What is an object doing at the moment it's instantaneous acceleration is zero?
it can be moving at constant velocity or staying still

yes
When thrust and drag are equal why does the object still move?
When the forces on an object add up to zero, the object's acceleration is zero. Thatmeans the speed or direction of its motion doesn't change. It does not mean thatthe object isn't moving. A moving object would just keep moving at a constantspeed in a straight line.
When an object slows down it has no acceleration?
When an object slows down it is still accelerating.

Slowing down is negative acceleration in the direction you're moving, or positive acceleration in the opposite direction.
Can an object be moveing and still be in equilibrium?
No, an object cannot be in equilibrium if it is moving. Equilibrium is a state where the net forces acting on an object are balanced and there is no acceleration. If an object is moving, there must be an unbalanced force acting on it causing its motion.
An object with a constant acceleration but with zero velocity what is mean is n't possible.?
Yes, it can happen. when the velocity is momentarily zero while an object is changing from moving in the positive direction motion to the negative direction; the object obviously will stop at one point, but will still have a constant acceleration.
How do you have zero net force but still have motion?
An object can have zero net force but still be in motion if it is moving at a constant velocity. In this case, the forces acting on the object are balanced, resulting in no acceleration. For example, an object traveling at a constant speed on a frictionless surface would have zero net force acting on it.
Can an object have a speed of zero and the acceleration not be zero?
Yes, but only at one instant. For instance, if you throw an object straight up, when it reaches the highest point its instantaneous speed is zero, but of course its speed is changing - thus, acceleration is non-zero.
