Force and Motion Quiz

True or False: A stationary object will remain at rest if the forces acting on it are balanced.

• True

• False

True or False: An unbalanced force acting on an object will always result in a change in its motion.

• True

• False

True or False: In a balanced force system, the net force acting on an object is equal to zero.

• True

• False

True or False: If two forces of equal magnitude act in opposite directions on an object, the forces are considered unbalanced.

• True

• False

True or False: According to Newton's first law, an object in motion will come to a stop if the net force acting on it is zero.

• True

• False

True or False: When the forces acting on an object are balanced, there is no acceleration, and the object may be at rest or moving with a constant velocity.

• True

• False

True or False: Friction can act as an unbalanced force, causing a change in an object's motion.

• True

• False

True or False: If an object is accelerating, there must be an unbalanced force acting on it.

• True

• False

True or False: Gravity always acts as an unbalanced force, pulling objects towards the center of the Earth.

• True

• False

True or False: A net force of zero on an object implies that the object is not experiencing any forces at all.

• True

• False
