∙ 7y agoOne thing we know for sure is that this does happen. This is explained in different ways:* An object produces a field in the space surrounding it - for example, a magnetic field. This field will then interact with other objects. Or:
* The forces are "mediated" through particles, such as photons (for the electric and magnetic force), gravitons (for gravity), and gluons (for the strong and weak forces).
For more details, you may want to check the Wikipedia article on "Action at a distance".

∙ 9y agoMagnets are able to move object without touching them due to magnetic force. Electromagnetism is another way to move objects without touching them.

Wiki User

That's how a magnetic compass works.

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. 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.

Can an object be in equilibrium when three forces act on it and all at different angles?
yea
Do action and reaction forces acting in opposite directions cancel out because they act on different objects?
In order to cancel out, they must act on the same object.
What will happen if forces that act on an object are not balanced?
Then the objects will move in the direction of the resultant force.
In newtons 3rd law how many forces always act at once?
Two - forces act in pairs. If object "A" acts on object "B", the object "B" will also act on object "A". In many practical situations, there may be additional forces involved. For example, if an object is at rest despite the fact that a force acts on it, then it is obvious that an additional force acts on the same object, and in the opposite direction. In such cases, there are at least four forces involved, since according to Newton's Third Law, there must be an opposite force for each of these two forces. (Note that in Newton's Third Law, the two forces act on DIFFERENT objects, so the two forces that hold an object in balance do not quality as a pair of forces according to Newton's Third Law.)
What is a metal that can attract other materials without touching them?
Iron, Nickel and cobalt are attracted to magnets, these are field forces because they act on an object without touching it
How can forces act on an object without touching?
forces always have to touch an object to affect it because if you lay down a small piece of paper and blow on it its going to move p.s. I'm only a 5th grader
What are the three forces that act on objects without touching them?
We know that gravity, magnetic and electricforces or fields act across distance in a way that only the lines of force impinge on an affected object.
What objects are similar because they are both areas where forces can act without objects touching?
electric current
What two forces can act on an object without having to actually touch the object?
electricity, magnetism, gravity
Is a body in motion stays in motion?
That depends. If no forces act on the object, it will. If forces do act on the objects, such forces may change the object's velocity.
Name some forces that act upon a moving object?
Forces that likely act upon a moving object include:frictiongravity
How can forces act on an object without causing a change in the objects motion?
when the forces are balanced ,means a net external force is applied the object continues to be in the same state of rest or of motion
When several forces act on an object and the object does not move can the forces be balanced?
If the object doesn't move, the forces HAVE TO be balanced. There is no other way.
When no unbalanced forces act on an object the object can have no?
If forces on an object are balanced, the object will not accelerate - i.e., its velocity won't change.
Does a greater buoyant forces act on a large object or a small object?
a larger object
