AMOUNT OF FORCE APPLIED AND THE MASS
OF THE OBJECT TO THE AMOUNT OF

Do forces always result in motion?
What are the conditions for an object to
stay at rest, to keep moving at constant
velocity, or to move with increasing
velocity?
How is force related to acceleration?

What are the forces acting on the object


when you kick the ball?
Balanced and
Unbalanced Forces
Balanced Forces
 A balanced force is one in which the net force equals ZERO.

 Examples:

25 Newtons 25 Newtons
Unbalanced Forces

 An unbalanced force is one in which the net


force is greater than zero.
 Examples:

50
N

25 Newtons 40 Newtons 2N
Only an

force can change the motion of an


object.
 Example: Your doggy can cause
you to move if he pulls with
enough force.
 His force is greater than the force you’re using to
stay in place
What would happen if an unbalanced
force acted on an object that’s already
in motion?

 It will change the speed


or direction of the object.
 Example: Your sister is
driving her car. You run
up behind her and give her a push.
 Your force adds to the existing
force causing her to speed up.
Unbalanced forces can act in the
same direction.
 Example: You’re pushing a cabinet across the room with a force
of 15 N. You’re friend is pulling with a force of 10 N.
 What is the NET FORCE?
 What direction is the cabinet moving?

15 Newtons 10 Newtons
Unbalanced forces can act
in opposite directions.
 Example: Six people are tugging on a rope.
Three people pulls with a force of 20N and
the other pulls with a force of 25N.
 What is the NET FORCE?
 What direction is the rope moving?
