An object is in When opposing forces acting on balance each other?
equilibrium
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.
How do balance forces acting on an object affect its motion?
When the forces acting on an object are balanced, they cancel each other out and the result is no change in its motion.Balanced forces have no effect on motion. Unbalanced forces cause acceleration.
What's the word that completes this sentence- An object is in ---------- when opposing forces acting on it balance each other. Also it has 11 letters and starts with e?
equilibrium
How could you balance forces that are acting on an object that is unbalanced?
Use an equal and opposite force. If you have a cube, push on the other side. On a sphere, push on the polar opposite.
When a truck pulls a trailer the trailer and truck accelerate forward even though the action and reaction forces are the same size but opposite directions Why don't these forces balance each other?
these foces do not balance because both of the forces arent acting upon the same object
Is the net force zero when all the forces acting on an object are balanced?
Yes, the net force would be zero if all the forces acting on the object negated each other.
What type of forces are acting on object if there is no change you velocity?
In this case, the forces on the object are balanced. In other words, the vector sum of all the forces is zero.
If you push an object in a forward direction does its velocity have to be forward?
No. It depends on what other forces are acting on the object.
The force exerted by a scale on an object is the?
The force exerted on a scale by an object and other forces acting.
When you lift an object up two forces act on it identify these forces?
Lifting force acting upward Weight of the object acting downward Both are equal and opposite to each other
When are the forces acting on the object?
Depending on the scenario the forces act on the object when there is actually a force being acted on it? Gravity is always acting on objects (unless space) Friction acts on object as long as object is moving on a surface with friction There are a bunch of other forces but these are just examples
