Imbalanced external forces, says Newton's first law: "Every body will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless rectilieo acted on by an external force, which is different from zero"

When will an object change its state of motion?

An object changes its state of motion when it accelerates or decelerates, usually caused by a force.


What does it take to change an objects state of motion?

it takes an unbalanced force to change an object's state of motion


What is needed to change an object's state of motion?

With changing the "state of motion", I assume you want to change the velocity. What you need here is a force, applied on the object. The amount of acceleration is given by Newton's Second Law.


When a car stop why are you tending to move forward?

It is due to inertiaInertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest, or the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion.


How are forces related to motion?

Balanced force can keep object in constant uniform motion only when moved. Unbalanced force can change state of motion of the object. If the object is at rest by a balanced force or unbalanced it can be set into motion or vice versa.


Can balanced forces bring about any change in an object's state of motion?

If all the forces acting on a body are balanced, i.e. sum to zero, they cannot bring about a change in its state of motion.


Which term describes the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion?

An object's tendency to resist a change in its state of motion is called inertia. This is the basis of Newton's Laws of Motion; "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.". The state of motion refers to the object's velocity, which is the the speed and direction. One quantifies inertia as the quantity of mass of an object. On can say that the mass of an object is a measure of how much an object resists change in its motion. The more mass an object has, the more inertia it has. That's why it is harder to push a 3 ton box as opposed to a soccer ball, or something lighter.


What is the scientific meaning of ineria?

Going to guess you meant to say Inertia. Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest, or the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion.


How are inertia and motion related?

Inertia is an object's resistance to change it's state of motion or rest. Motion or rest depends on the observer's frame of reference.


What causes the velocity of an object to change?

Newton's First Law states:"A body continues to maintain its state of rest or of uniform motion unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force."


What does inertia force mean?

it is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest


Every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by force impressed on it?
