Can an object accelerate if there are no forces?
Acceleration is the change of velocity per unit time, so if there is no force, all we know is that the acceleration is zero. Therefore, the velocity is not changing. So, yes, the object can be moving when there is no force applied to it.
What is the force that causes something to accelerate?
unbalanced force
An unbalanced force acting on an object causes it to accelerate. There are two points to note about the acceleration of an object when an unbalanced force acts on it. The bigger the unbalanced force acting on the object the bigger the acceleration of the object.
What is the force when you pull an object?
Force is defined as a push or pull acting on an object. Forces include gravity, friction, and applied force. Force causes changes in the speed or direction of motion. These changes are called acceleration.
What is the force that causes acceleration?
the force that pulls on objects and causes acceleration if the objects are not balanced by an opposing force. speed. distance traveled per unit time. Newton’s Second Law of Motion. Force is equal to the change in momentum (mV) per change in time.
What is the force that pulls on objects?
A B gravity the force that pulls on objects and caus speed distance traveled per unit time Newton’s Second Law of Motion Force is equal to the change in momentum Newton’s Third Law of Motion For every action, there is an equal and
What happens when an object is not balanced by forces?
An object’s motion will not change until an unbalanced force acts on the object. An object will not start to move until an unbalanced force acts on it. Motion. The result of unbalanced forces. Gravity. The force that pulls on objects and causes acceleration if the objects are not balanced by an opposing force.
What are the factors that affect the speed of an object?
change in motion. the result of unbalanced forces. gravity. the force that pulls on objects and causes acceleration if the objects are not balanced by an opposing force. speed. distance traveled per unit time. Newton’s Second Law of Motion. Force is equal to the change in momentum (mV) per change in time.
