F = m * a

Force (the push) equals mass (the "weight" of the ball) times acceleration (the rater of speed increase)

The duration, direction, and the amount of force applied by the push affect the final velocity (the effect of the acceleration on the ball).

What happens to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?

The speed increases. The object accellerates positively in the direction of motion.


When a ball is pushed up hill what are the forces?

When a ball is pushed uphill, the main forces acting on it are the force applied by the person pushing the ball, which is in the direction of motion, and the force of gravity acting against the motion of the ball, which is pulling it downhill. Friction between the ball and the surface it is moving on also plays a role in resisting the motion.


The force that causes moving objects in a circle to be pushed outward?

The force that causes moving objects in a circle to be pushed outward is called centrifugal force. It is a fictitious force experienced by objects in circular motion that appears to push them away from the center of the circle. This force is a result of inertia and acts in the opposite direction to the centripetal force keeping the object moving in a circular path.


Is a moving car that changes direction an example of inertia?

Yes, a moving car that changes direction is an example of inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, including changes in direction. The car's inertia keeps it moving in its original direction until an external force (such as the steering wheel) is applied to change its motion.


A swing pushed by the wind would move in what type of motion?

A swing pushed by the wind would exhibit periodic motion, swinging back and forth due to external forces acting on it.

How does a grocery cart violate newtons law of inertia?

It doesn't. A grocery cart can neither start moving on its own nor stop on its own. An unbalanced force must be applied for either motion. Sometimes grocery carts appear to be moving on there own, but they are being pushed by the wind, or they may be on an incline and may move under the force of gravity. (Or the one you see moving may have been pushed by somebody who then let go.)

Something has to either be pushed or pulled by force.


You push on the side of a toy truck rolling along the floor What will happen to the motion of the truck?

The toy truck will be pushed in the direction you applied force. If the force is strong enough, it may change the direction of the truck's motion or even stop it, depending on factors like friction and the strength of the push.


Can a Can Car move without being pushed?
