What is the sum of all forces acting on an object called?

Back

Net Force

Front

If an object experiences 25N of applied force but does not accelerate, what can be said about the static friction?

Back

It must be equal to 25N.

Front

What type of forces are present when an object is not accelerating?

Back

Balanced Forces

Front

What is the term for forces that cause an object to accelerate?

Back

Unbalanced Forces

Front

What is the definition of Net Force?

Back

The vector sum of all forces acting on an object.

Front

In which scenario are forces considered unbalanced?

Back

A car picking up speed as it merges onto a highway.

Front

What happens to an object when the net force acting on it is zero?

Back

It remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.

Front

What is static friction?

Back

The force that keeps an object at rest and prevents it from moving.

Front

What is the relationship between applied force and friction when an object is stationary?

Back

The static friction force equals the applied force.

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

Newton (N)
