Gravity. The inertia of an object will keep it moving until an opposing force stops it.
Friction.
Called inertia. To accelerate a body the force is mass times acceleration. No force = no acceleration. People say " the force is opposed by the massacceleration"

Force that opposes motion of surface as it moves across another surface?
the force that opposes the motion of two touching surfaces is velocity.
What opposes the motion of one object moving past another?
Friction opposes the motion of one object moving past another. Objects at rest remain at rest and objects traveling at a steady rate in a straight line continue that way until a force acts on them.
What opposes motion between surfaces that are touching?
Force of friction
What force opposes the motion of your car when your step on the brake pedal?
Friction.
How does force affect the motion of an object?
If you apply force to an object, you accelerate it. If you apply the force in the direction that the object is moving, you speed it up. If you apply it in the opposite direction, you slow it down. If you apply the force in another direction than the object is moving in you will change the direction of the objects motion. The amount of acceleration is given by a = F/m where a is acceleration, F is force and m is the mass of the object.
What is a force that opposes an object's motion?
friction
What force opposes the motion of an object?
Friction.
What is a force that always opposes the motion of an object?
Friction .
What is a force that opposes motion of an object is called?
resistance (friction)
The force that opposes the motion of an object moving on a surface?
Friction.
What force opposes the downward motion of falling object?
Air resistance
How does the direction of frictional force compare to the direction of an object motion?
The direction of the force of friction is such that it opposes the direction of motion that an object would move if there were no frictional force acting on the object.
A force that opposes the motion of one object moving past another?
Kinetic Friction
A force called opposes the motion of one object moving past another?
Friction.
Is fluid friction a force that opposes the motion of an object through a fluid such as water?
Yes
What is a kid friendly definition of friction?
Friction is a force that opposes the motion of any object moving on it.
What kind of work is done when a force opposes an object's motion watts newtons or molecular?
The answer is newtons
