The slowing down of moving objects is usually the result of some type of friction.

What is push or pull that makes an object move or puts it into motion?

A push or pull that acts on an object is a force.


What is the force that can be thought of as either a push and pull as long as it makes the object move in a circular path?

centripetal


What do you do if you pull?

You move an object.


What makes an object move?

The force of gravity acts on an object if it's on a hill. if it is not then it takes another force, such as a push or pull, to move the object.


What is a push or pull that can move an object?

force


What is transfer of energy when pushed or pull makes an object move called?

The transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied to an object causing it to move is known as mechanical work. This work is defined as the force applied to an object multiplied by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force.


How can pushes and pulls affect an object?

Pushes and pulls can affect an object by changing its motion or position. A push can increase an object's speed or move it in a particular direction, while a pull can slow down or stop the object. The magnitude and direction of the force applied determine how the object responds to the push or pull.


How can a force make an object move change direction or stop?

A force can make an object move by exerting a push or a pull on it. The direction of the force determines how the object will move. A force in the same direction as the object's motion can increase its speed, while a force in the opposite direction can slow it down or stop it. Changing the direction of the force can also change the object's direction of motion.


Why cant the earth rotate or move through space?

The Earth, like every object in our Solar system is tied down by the huge gravity pull between the Sun and the object.


What force can be thought of as either a push or pull as long as it makes the object moves in a circular path?

Centripetal force can be thought of as a force that acts towards the center of a curved path, allowing an object to move in a circular motion. It can be either a push or a pull, depending on the direction of the object's motion.


How ARE Push And Pull Different?

Push and Pull are different in this respect: Push is using potential energy to make an object move in the direction the energy is being released. Pull on the other hand, is using potential energy to move an object in the direction that the object pulling it is moving.


What Force can be thought as either a push or a pull as long as it makes the object move in a circular path?

The centripetal force is the force that acts towards the center of a circular path, keeping an object moving in that path. It can be thought of as a push or a pull, depending on the context, as long as it maintains the object's circular motion.
