The main reason an object stops when you stop pushing it across the floor is due to the force of friction between the object and the floor. When you push the object, the force you apply overcomes friction and moves the object forward. When you stop pushing, friction between the object and the floor slows it down and eventually brings it to a stop.

What are two pushing forces?
Two examples of pushing forces are a car's engine pushing the car forward, and a person pushing a heavy object across the floor.
What causes a box you are pushing across the floor to stop when you stop pushing?
The box stops moving because of inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. When you stop pushing the box, there is no external force acting on it to keep it moving, so it comes to a stop due to inertia.
What causes a box you are pushing across the floor to stop when to stop pushing?
Static Friction
List 5 different examples of a pushing force?
up thrust, friction, air resistance, gravity and that's all i know
What kind of friction happens when push an object along the floor?
The friction that occurs when pushing an object along the floor is kinetic friction. This type of friction acts in the direction opposite to the motion of the object and arises due to the contact between the object and the surface it is moving on.

What causes unbalanced forces?
you are not considering the "hidden" force of friction and/or gravity in your thinking. Example: A box sitting at rest on a floor has balanced forces: no force pushing from any of the four sides Balance force up and down (gravity pulling box down, floor holding it up) Now, someone pushes the box across the floor: Initial push causes and acceleration (going from zero velocity to say 5 mph) Now, if that person maintained the 5 mph speed (no acceleration) of pushing the box then we are back to a balanced force: the pushing on the side of the box = the friction on the bottom of the box. Unbalanced forces can cause an object move from its original position resulting in acceleration because every object in the universe has an internal force [resisting force] in it . when an external force applied on an object increases from that of the internal force of the object then that force is said to be unbalanced force

What is the resistance or drag you encounter when you pull an object across the floor?
The resistance or drag you encounter when pulling an object across the floor is mainly due to friction between the object and the floor surface. This frictional force opposes the motion of the object and makes it harder to move. The rougher the surface or the heavier the object, the greater the resistance or drag will be.
What causes my dog to drag his rump across the floor?
It can mean it has Worms.
What happens when someone pushes a chair across the floor?
When someone pushes a chair across the floor, the force applied in the pushing direction causes the chair to move. Friction between the chair legs and the floor resists the motion, which can create a sound as the chair moves. If the force is strong enough, the chair will accelerate and continue moving until the force is removed or balanced by other forces.
Which Newtons law of motion can explain what happens when someone pushes a chair across the floor?
It will have no equilibruim and when you are pushing it you are using a force
What is the form of energy you give a chair by pushing it across the floor?
I am pushing a chair across the floor what type of force am I using?
What kind of force moves an object away (4th grade)?
The two major forces that act upon a body are centrifugal force and centripetal force. Centrifugal force causes a body to fly outwards, or moves a body away and centripetal force counteracts centrifugal force, preventing the object from flying out and keeping it moving with a constant speed, in a circular path.Search templates (CTRL+Space) New TemplateHide button
