Study Notes
Unbalanced Forces and Motion
- A common misconception about the relationship between motion and unbalanced forces is that an unbalanced force is required for an object's motion to continue. This is incorrect!
- An unbalanced force causes a change in an object's velocity, either in speed, direction, or both.
- An object will maintain a constant velocity when the net force acting on it is zero.
- The effect of an unbalanced force on an object's motion is described by Newton's Second Law of Motion.
- An unbalanced force on an object directly relates to the object's acceleration, with greater forces producing a higher acceleration.
- An object moving with uniform motion implies a constant velocity.
- This means that its speed and direction do not change.
- It's essential to remember that an object can maintain uniform motion even when acted upon by balanced forces.
- Balanced forces result in no net force, thus allowing the object to continue moving with constant velocity.
