acceleration, due to a force the moving body is affected by.

SUM[Forces] = mass * acceleration --> change in speed.

What 2 factors can cause a change in velocity?

Velocity is said to have changed when either the speed or the direction of motion changes. There are myriads of things that can cause it, including jets, rubber bands, gravity, and friction.


What is that which can cause an object with mass to change its velocity?

A force acting on the object can cause it to change its velocity. The force could be due to interactions such as pushing, pulling, gravity, or friction.


What needs to be applied in order to change an objects velocity?

To change an object's velocity, you need to apply a force to it. The force will cause the object to accelerate, thus changing its velocity. The magnitude and direction of the force will determine the extent and direction of the velocity change.


How do forces cause a change in an object's momentum?

A force acting on a body causes acceleration. Acceleration is measure of the rate of change in the object's velocity. As its velocity changes, its momentum, which is the product of its mass and velocity, will change.


How unbalanced forces change the velocity and acceleration of objects by completing the cause-and-effect graphic?

An unbalanced force causes a change in velocity by accelerating an object in the direction of the force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. In this cause-and-effect relationship, the force is the cause, leading to the effect of acceleration and a change in velocity of the object.

What two controls on a car cause a change in velocity?

The cruise control, since it affects the accelerator, can also cause a change in velocity.


What type of force will cause change in velocity?

Any force will cause change in velocity if it isn't canceled by an equal, opposite force.

What can forces cause a change in?

A force causes an acceleration. That implies that it will change: * The velocity, and * The momentum.

Forces that cause an objects velocity to change?

In all cases acceleration.


What is a force that can cause an object to change its speed and direction?

A basic physics answer for this is that a net force (or unbalanced force) will cause an object to accelerate, that is, cause the object to change its speed and/or direction.
