If an object is not accelerating, it can exist in two other states of motion: constant velocity motion (moving with a steady speed in a straight line) or at rest (not moving at all).
The two states that exist when the only force acting on an object is gravity are free fall and equilibrium. In free fall, the object is accelerating downward due to gravity, while in equilibrium, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity with no net force acting on it.
In order for an object to be in constant uniform motion ... that is, un-accelerated, with constant speed and direction of motion ... the vector sum of all forces acting on it must be zero.
Balanced forces can exist with or without kinetic energy. Balanced forces occur when the forces acting on an object are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in the object's motion. Kinetic energy, on the other hand, is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. So, an object experiencing balanced forces may or may not have kinetic energy depending on its state of motion.
The energy caused by an object's vibration is known as mechanical energy. It can exist in the form of potential energy (stored energy) when the object is stationary, and kinetic energy (energy of motion) when the object is vibrating.
To set an object into motion, a force must be applied to overcome any resistance or inertia that may exist. In the case of waves moving a paper boat, the force of the water displacement propels the boat forward. The amount of force needed depends on the mass of the object and the resistance it encounters in its environment.
Resistance to the motion of an object is friction. Several different kinds of friction exist, including dry, fluid, lubricated, skin, and internal.

Erm..yes. Technically Newton's 3rd law of Motion States that, " all forces exist in pairs: if one object A exerts a force FA on a second object B, then B simultaneously exerts a force FB on A, and the two forces are equal and opposite."
The concept that states objects do not cease to exist when they are out of reach or view is called object permanence.

Absolute rest and absolute motion do not exist because motion is relative; it depends on the observer's frame of reference. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, all motion is measured relative to another object, meaning there is no universal state of rest or motion. Furthermore, even in a seemingly stationary state, factors like gravitational forces and cosmic movements can influence perception, reinforcing that all states are relative rather than absolute.
That was Isaac Newton. He formulated three laws: The first law states that if the net force (the vector sum of all forces acting on an object) is zero, then the velocity of the object is constant.The second law states that the net force on an object is equal to the rate of change, The third law states that all forces between two objects exist in equal magnitude and opposite direction.
There is no such thing as "absolute motion" - neither in outer space, nor anywhere else. Motion must always be specified in relationship to some other object.
Newton's first law states that an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force. In the case of an object moving in a circular path, centripetal force is required to keep the object moving in that path, not centrifugal force. Centrifugal force is a perceived force that arises from the object's inertia, rather than a true force acting on the object itself.
Balanced forces can exist with or without kinetic energy. Balanced forces occur when the forces acting on an object are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in the object's motion. Kinetic energy, on the other hand, is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. So, an object experiencing balanced forces may or may not have kinetic energy depending on its state of motion.
