How can forces acting on an object be unbalanced?
If the sum of the forces on an object do not equal zero, then the object will experience acceleration.
Which term describes the vector sum of the forces acting on a body?
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object.
What is the expression for equilibrium?
the sum of all forces acting on an object should be equal to zero the sum of all forces acting on an object should be equal to zero
Can an object be moving at a constant speed if three forces are acting on the object?
Sure, as long as the sum of the forces is zero.
What quantities sum to zero when a system is in equilibrium?
For equilibrium, two conditions have to be met:* The sum (vector sum) of all forces acting on the object has to be zero (otherwise, it will start to accelerate). * The sum of all torques acting on the object has to be zero (otherwise, it will start to rotate).
When the net forces acting on an object sum to zero then the object is acceleration?
When the net forces acting on an object sum to zero then the object's acceleration is zero.
How can forces acting on an object be unbalanced?
If the sum of the forces on an object do not equal zero, then the object will experience acceleration.
How an object can have forces acting on it but not be accelerating?
Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.
Is the sum of all the forces acting on an object?
Net force.
Which term describes the vector sum of the forces acting on a body?
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on the object.
What is the combined total of all forces acting on an object?
that is called the net force; it is a vector sum of all the forces acting on it
What is the expression for equilibrium?
the sum of all forces acting on an object should be equal to zero the sum of all forces acting on an object should be equal to zero
Can an object be moving at a constant speed if three forces are acting on the object?
Sure, as long as the sum of the forces is zero.
If an object is moving at constant velocity what is the sum of all of the forces acting on the object?
zero
What are the conditions for forces to balanced?
The sum of the forces must be zero. More precisely, "the forces on an object are balanced" means the same as "the vector sum of the forces acting on an object is equal to zero".
What are the conditions to balanced the forces?
The sum of the forces must be zero. More precisely, "the forces on an object are balanced" means the same as "the vector sum of the forces acting on an object is equal to zero".
What is sum of all the forces acting on an object caled?
The net force.
