When a body is accelerated the force acting on the body is?

If the body is accelerated, the force acting on it is unbalanced.

What does it mean when a body is accelerating?

acceleration, rate at which velocity changes with time, in terms of both speed and direction. A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down.

When a force acts on a body it produces an acceleration in the body and will be equal to the rate of change of?

Newton’s second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

Why is acceleration not constant?

Whenever there is a change in velocity, either due to a change in speed or a change in direction, there will be non-zero acceleration. Acceleration is not constant if the net force is not constant.

How would you describe the acceleration of a body if the forces acting on it are said to be balanced?

The first law – sometimes referred to as the law of inertia – states that if the forces acting upon an object are balanced, then the acceleration of that object will be 0 m/s/s.

Is the force acting on the body balanced or unbalanced if the body is I accelerated II stationary?

If the body is found to be accelerated, is the force acting on it is unbalanced.

What happens to acceleration when force is doubled?

As we increase the force on an object the acceleration increases proportionally. Since the mass does not change as the acceleration increases, we can say that force is equal to acceleration. Therefore, if you double the force you double the acceleration.

What is law of force and acceleration?

According to Newton s Second Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Force and Acceleration, a force upon an object causes it to accelerate according to the formula net force = mass x acceleration. So the acceleration of the object is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass.

How would you relate force and acceleration?

Newton’s second law shows that there is a direct relationship between force and acceleration. The greater the force that is applied to an object of a given mass, the more the object will accelerate. For example, doubling the force on the object doubles its acceleration.
