What is the force if you are going down?
If you are going down, the force acting on you would be the force of gravity pulling you downwards. This force is determined by your mass and the acceleration due to gravity (about 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth).
Why do you feel heavier going up a lift?
The force of the lift accelerating you upward is added to the force dur to gravity. You feel this as added weight. The same effect happens when it stops moving going downward, and the opposite occurs when you begin going down or stop going up. You are not resisting the force of gravity and you do not feel the weight; for some of that time, you are actually freefall.
What is the name given to a force going down?
The force that acts downward is called gravity. It is the force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth.
Is a skateboard slowing down while going up a ramp a balanced or unbalanced force?
A skateboard slowing down while going up a ramp is due to unbalanced forces. The force of gravity pulling the skateboard downward is greater than the force propelling it forward, causing it to slow down.
Could enough weight be added to a spinning object to stop it completely?
only earth. __________________ No. Adding weight will slow it down, but the angular momentum would be preserved. In order to stop it completely, some opposite force would need to be exerted to neutralize the angular momentum.

How can you stop water from going into the toilets overflow?
Easy to do, but can have detrimental effects. The water goes down that line to provide the motive force to keep your waste product moving down the pipe. If not enough water goes down you could have plugging in the line.
What is the name of a pulley system in which the direcion of the effort force is going down but the effort force is equal to or greater than the load force?
simple pulley
Why is going downstairs negative work?
As you walk down the stairs, you apply a force to keep yourself from falling down the stairs. The force is in the upward direction, but your movement is in the downward direction. If the force is in the opposite direction of motion, work done by the force is negative. Gravitational force, because it pulls down, does positive work.
Do things float in an elevator that is going down?
No they don't. The force of gravity is too great.
Does the more cars on a roller coaster going down a hill make it travel farther?
Yes, this is because there is more force pushing it down and this force continues after the hill andeventuallystops.
What is a force that acts to slow down motion?
Depends: If it is coming down, air resistance If it is going across something, friction
Why does a bus going down is faster than the going up?
Because they're both being acted on by gravity. The one going down is faster, because gravity is pulling it down in addition to the motor propelling it forwards. The one going up is having to counteract the force of gravity trying to pull it back down.
How much force does it take to knock down 6 small trees?
Well you are going to need some kind of force depending on how small the trees are.
Is a skateboard slowing down while going up a ramp a balanced or unbalanced force?
A skateboard slowing down while going up a ramp is due to unbalanced forces. The force of gravity pulling the skateboard downward is greater than the force propelling it forward, causing it to slow down.
