Early studies on the causes of motion?

Aristotle who first to analyze and observe the causes of motion. He observe that when an object was push or pull the object will continue to move and whenthe an object was not push or pull the object will remain at rest. this observation was consider but when Galileo experimented that when an object was at rest if will remain atrest and when an object was move it will continue moved from one place to another. khimche :)


How does affect the motion ofan object?

the object of motion is akantutan


What is the rate of motion of an object in linear motion?

That is the object's 'speed'.


What is the rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?

That is the object's 'speed'.


What does an object in motion always wants to do?

An object doesn't "want to" do anything. An object in motion has the natural tendency to remain in motion.


Why does object in motion stay in motion?

An object in motion stays in motion because it requires a force to change the motion. No force, no change.


How does force affect an object's motion?

When a force is acted on an object the motion changes. Newtons 2nd law of motion states: An object in motion will stay in motion, and an object out of motion will stay out of motion, unless met with an unbalanced force. If a force is aplied to an object in motion it either accelerates, or it will stop once met with sed unbalanced force.


A force is necessary to keep an object in motion?

No, according to Newton's laws of motion, "an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an opposing force." Basically, a force is needed to make an object start moving but the object will move on its own from kinetic energy. In fact once the object is no longer 'accelerating' it is in a new 'inertial state' and may indeed not be considered as 'in motion' by an observer in the same state. i.e. If a space shuttle is at rest with respect to the Space Station, it must then 'accelerate' (deceleration is the same as acceleration in science) to the state of motion of the Earth's surface to land. Anyone at rest on the runway will then also consider the shuttle as 'not moving'. So 'motion' and 'speed', are only ever 'RELATIVE' to a datum which must be specified.


For an object to stay in motion what has to act on it?

Nothing. The natural tendency of an object in motion, is to stay in motion.


What causes an object in motion to stay in motion?

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion.


What has to act on an object for it to stay in motion?

Nothing. The natural tendency of an object in motion, is to stay in motion.
