No, it can be moving.
A body is said to be in equilibrium when the forces acting on it cancel each other out, that is, the body is not accelerating.
Therefore an object might be moving at a constant speed and be considered in equilibrium.
An object stays at rest unless a force acts on it.
An external force.
No, it is not accurate to say that no force acts on a body at rest. Even when a body is at rest, there can still be forces acting on it, such as gravitational forces or normal forces. These forces balance each other out to keep the body stationary.
When a body is at rest, the forces acting on it are balanced. These can include gravitational force pulling the body downward and normal force exerted by the surface supporting the body. As long as these forces are equal and opposite, the body remains at rest.
Newton's law of inertia: An object at rest remains at rest unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.
Yes, that is correct.
An object stays at rest unless a force acts on it.
If no force acts on an object, it will remain at rest if it was initially at rest, or continue moving at a constant velocity if it was already in motion. This is known as Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object will remain in its state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.
An external force.
Yes. Newton's First Law of Motion: Every body continues to remain in its state of rest or uniform motion unless it is acted on by an external, unbalanced force.
If no unbalanced force acts on an object at rest, it will remain at rest according to Newton's first law of motion.
No, it is not accurate to say that no force acts on a body at rest. Even when a body is at rest, there can still be forces acting on it, such as gravitational forces or normal forces. These forces balance each other out to keep the body stationary.
Yes, the law states that an object continues its state of rest or uniform motin in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by an external source impressed upon it.
Yes, that is correct. The law of inertia, also known as Newton's First Law of Motion, states that an object will remain at rest or continue moving at a constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.
Newton's first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest and a body in motion remains in motion at constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
When a body is at rest, the forces acting on it are balanced. These can include gravitational force pulling the body downward and normal force exerted by the surface supporting the body. As long as these forces are equal and opposite, the body remains at rest.
