What is the definition of balanced forces?

Back

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

What is the definition of unbalanced forces?

Back

Unbalanced forces are not equal and opposite, causing a change in motion.

State Newton's First Law of Motion.

Back

An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a net external force.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

F = m * a (Force = mass x acceleration)
