The amount of force needed is dependent on a few variables. The density of the steel door, is the door hallow, and the muscle strength of the person kicking. To accurately assess more information is required.

Is a force required to stop an object from moving?

Yes, a force is required to stop an object from moving. This force is typically applied in the opposite direction to the object's motion, causing it to slow down and eventually come to a stop.


What is the frictional force needed to slow something down?

The frictional force needed to slow something down depends on the object's mass, speed, and the coefficient of friction between the object and the surface it is moving on. The force required can be calculated using the equation: force of friction = coefficient of friction x normal force.


What is required for force to come into play?

Force is required for an object's motion to change. This change could involve the object speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. Forces can be applied through contact with another object or from a distance, such as gravity or magnetism.


How much does 1 million pounds of steel weigh in water?

ANS1:Because of the natural buoyancy water provides steel actually weighs less in water. so 1 million pounds of steel in water would weigh only 500,000 pounds. Cheers!! ANS2:Bull. Answer 1 is a soup sandwich. The earth is still pulling the steel towards it with the same force. That force is its weight. That the water is also being pulled toward the earth and causes the buoyant upward force on the steel does not make the steel's weight less. That is like arguing that a hunk of steel is weightless because the floor is pushing against it as hard as it is pushing against the floor or arguing that a steel-hulled ocean liner has no weight because it floats in water. The steel will still have the weight of 1 million pounds-force.Since the specific gravity of steel is 7.8, the upward buoyant force will be 1/7.8 of its weight. If you insist on using pounds to measure weight, the upward buoyant force would be 128,000 pounds-force. You could subtract this from the 1 million pounds-force of the steel to get 872,000 pounds-force. You could call this its effective weight or net downward force if you want to make the point that that force is what is pressing on the bottom of the body of water.This is probably the answer you should put on your homework if you are a student in a U.S. public school. If you put anything else down, you will likely confuse your teacher especially if you try to argue the difference between pound-force, pound-mass poundals, and slugs.ANS3ALOT!

How much force must be used to pull down 100 lbs using a rope?

To calculate the force needed to pull down 100 lbs using a rope, you would need to know the angle at which the force is being applied and any other factors that may affect the force required. In a simplistic scenario with no angle or other factors, you would need to exert at least 100 lbs of force to counteract the weight of the object being pulled down.

What is a knock down door frame?

Knock down door frames are factory prefinished steel door frames which are delivered to the project site in pieces for field assembly. They are similar to hollow metals frames, but the joints are attached mechanically, not welded.

What are the processes involved in steel making?

Iron ore is heated to melting point in a blast furnace. Other elements are added depending on the type of steel required Scrap steel can be melted down in an electric furnace also.


Why do car doors have a semi shut option when nobody uses except by accident?

This is to act a a safety device, It allows the door to latch without the force required to compress the black rubber weather seal that most cars have fitted to the door or body. When the car travels down the road if the door was left ajar this semi shut latch should be able to hold the door shut until it is safe to shut the door properly. This system still requires a minuet amount of force to work though so all doors should be checked by the before driving


How do planets in the solar system keep moving?

An object has a general tendency to keep moving - that's how our Universe works. No force is required to keep an object moving - unless there is another force that slows it down. Here on Earth, there are usually frictional forces that slow objects down, and therefore a force is required to counteract the frictional forces.

Can you write a sentence with the word force in the sentence?

You can't force me to do anything! Use the Force, Luke. The opposite forces attract each other. Maggie had to force the door open. The force of the punch was such that I fell down. I was forced to open the safe under gunpoint.

what tools are required for a door replacement?

The tools required for door replacement involve a hammer, spatula type wedge to drive the thing that holds the door together apart. A philips screw driver to take down those pieces, and do the reverse to put the other door back up. For a better guide go here: http://www.acehardware.com/info/index.jsp?categoryId=1284489
