Can there be a force without a motion?

There cannot be a force without motion. If there is no motion, then there is no force acting. Objects can continue moving in a straight line without applying force. When an object is moving, there is always a force in the direction of its motion.

What force causes no motion?

Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion. The result is no motion. Balanced forces can cancel each other out. Any time there is a balanced force, the object does not move.

Is it possible to have forces acting on an object in the absence of the object being in motion?

yes it is possible because when the net force is zero and acceleration is zero. so if the object has some constant velocity it continues with the same velocity until it has some external acceleration. If an object is at rest, can we conclude that no external forces are acting on it?

What is the absence of motion?

What is another word for absence of movement?

stillness	immobility
stationary	rest
a standstill	a halt
a stop	inaction
stagnation	lifelessness

Does force cause motion?

A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, change direction, change speed, or stop. Without a force, an object that is moving will continue to move and an object at rest will remain at rest. Not all forces cause motion, however. Some forces, like gravity and friction, resist or work against movement.

What forces can cause a change in motion no change in motion?

If two forces of equal strength act on an object in opposite directions, the forces will cancel, resulting in a net force of zero and no movement. Two or more opposite forces are balanced forces if their effects cancel each other and they do not cause a change in an object’s motion.

Is it possible to apply force on something without doing work?

If there is no motion in the direction of the force, then no work is done by that force. It changes the direction of the motion, but it does no work on the object. This can be applied to any circular orbit.

When force is applied to an object it is not affected?

Answer: A force acting on an object causes the object to change its shape or size, to start moving, to stop moving, to accelerate or decelerate. If the resultant force is zero the forces on the object are balanced. If the resultant force acting on the object is ‘zero’ then: the object will remain stationary.

What is the absence of force?

Newton’s first law of motion, also referred to as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion in the same direction unless it is acted on by a force.

Is it possible that a force changes the direction of motion but not the speed of an object?

Yes, it is possible that a force changes the direction of the motion but not the speed of an object. It is possible when we apply force at 900 or perpendicular to the direction of the displacement. Thus, this will change the direction but not the speed or velocity of the object.

What force that causes the change of motion of an object?

Forces include gravity, friction, and applied force. Force causes changes in the speed or direction of motion. These changes are called acceleration.

What do you mean by no work force?

When a force acts perpendicular to the direction of displacement of a particle, then the force not do any work and is known as no work force.

Is it possible to have motion without a force?

It is possible to have motion in the absence of a force (F) beacuse no motion without force. If an object is not moving , no external force acts on it (T) beacuse each object will not move unless a force acts on it. If a single force acts on an object , the object accelerates ( T)

What would happen if there was no force on an object?

Depends on what you mean. Newton’s 1st law states that an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by a force (i.e. motion is continual without force): Newton’s laws of motion . In this sense, a rocky rogue planet travelling through space is moving in the absence of force.

Can an object move with a zero net force?

Yes. An object on a surface will remain on the surface even though gravity is acting on it with a force. Yes. Objects can move at a constant velocity while experiencing a zero net force. And yes, force happens in the absence of motion all the time.

What is Newton’s first law of motion?
