When a car is accelerating, the main forces acting on it are the driving force from the engine that propels the car forward, and the opposing forces such as friction between the tires and the road surface, air resistance, and the car's inertia that resists the change in motion.

Why are forces balanced when a car is travelling at a steady speed?
When a car is travelling at a steady speed, the driving force from the engine is equal to the total resistive forces acting against the car, such as air resistance and friction. This balance of forces allows the car to maintain a constant velocity without accelerating or decelerating.
When an object is accelerating are the forces balanced or unbalanced?
When an object is accelerating, the forces acting on it are unbalanced. This means that there is a net force acting on the object in the direction of its acceleration, causing a change in its velocity.
You are sitting in a car driving at a constant speed on a flat road What are all of the forces acting on you not the forces acting on the car?
Moving at a constant speed if your in the car then there are no forces acting on you from the car. If the car accelerates then the car will push you forward and you will feel the Force of the seat pushing you. The only other force on you in a car is gravity witch always pulls straight down. Gravity is always there whether the car is accelerating or not.
Describe a situation in which unbalanced forces are acting on an object?
When a car is accelerating, the engine is providing a force in one direction, while friction and air resistance are providing forces in the opposite direction. This creates an unbalanced force on the car, causing it to accelerate in the direction of the net force.
Are there forces acting on a car that is at rest xy?
There are forces acting on the car. They are just equal to the force of the car acting on the force. In example, gravity is acting on the car, but the car is pushing back equally. Therefore, the car doesn't move.

When an object is accelerating are the forces balanced or unbalanced?
When an object is accelerating, the forces acting on it are unbalanced. This means that there is a net force acting on the object in the direction of its acceleration, causing a change in its velocity.
How an object can have forces acting on it but not be accelerating?
Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.
What does the term balance mean?
If you add up all the forces acting on an object, they are balanced if they equal zero. (They cancel each other out). If the forces acting on a object are balanced, then the acceleration of that object is zero. It may still be moving, but it is not accelerating. An object that is not accelerating, (the sum of the forces acting on it is zero), is in equilibrium.
You are sitting in a car driving at a constant speed on a flat road What are all of the forces acting on you not the forces acting on the car?
Moving at a constant speed if your in the car then there are no forces acting on you from the car.

Gravity is always there whether the car is accelerating or not.
How do you identify balanced forces?
The object the forces are acting on will not move, or will be moving at a constant speed (e.g. not accelerating). This is called being in 'equilibrium'.
A race car travels along a raceway at a constant velocity of 200 kmh what horizontal forces act and what is the net force acting on the car?
Drag forces are trying to slow the car down. Engine power to the wheels generates force that equals the drag, and keeps the car travelling at a constant speed. The sum of all forces on the car are zero, which is why it is not accelerating or decelerating.
Describe a situation in which unbalanced forces are acting on an object?
When a car is accelerating, the engine is providing a force in one direction, while friction and air resistance are providing forces in the opposite direction. This creates an unbalanced force on the car, causing it to accelerate in the direction of the net force.
Are there forces acting on a car that is at rest xy?
There are forces acting on the car. They are just equal to the force of the car acting on the force. In example, gravity is acting on the car, but the car is pushing back equally. Therefore, the car doesn't move.

What are the forces acting on a person when they are running and accelerating?
When a person is running and accelerating, the main forces acting on them are the force of gravity pulling them down towards the ground and the force of their muscles pushing them forward to propel them in the desired direction. Additionally, air resistance may also act as a force opposing their motion.
What is an example of a net force?
An example of a net force is when a car is accelerating. The net force on the car is the combined effect of all forces acting on it, such as the force produced by the engine and the force of friction. This net force causes the car to change its speed or direction.
