∙ 15y agoNewton's 2nd Law of Motion states that F = m * a, where F = the net force acting on an object [N]; m = the mass of the object [kg]; and a = acceleration [m/s2] . If the motion is linear, then we can consider scalar operations on F and a. If the force is a vector, then a has to be a vector too.

∙ 15y agoWhen unequal forces act on an object, it results in acceleration or deceleration of the object. This change in motion is governed by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

Force of gravity . . . down.
Force of arm muscle . . . upward.
Forces are unequal. Upward force is greater than downward force.
Glass accelerates upward, toward mouth.

∙ 10y agoYou're talking about "unbalanced forces". But the change in the object's motion
is not in the direction of the larger force. It's in the direction of the vector sum of
all the forces, which is not necesssarily the direction of any single one of them.

∙ 6y agoIf the sum of all forces acting on one object is not exactly zero, the forces are said to be unbalanced. In that case, the object will accelerate.

If there are two or more unequal forces acting on an object then the object will be acting on the forces. ^_^
Having no force acting at all, as the forces will cancel each other out. This results in a net force of zero.
I wasn't there, so I have no knowledge of how things were set up in that particular experiment. The only force I'm sure of is the force of gravity, and your use of the term "dropped" seems to confirm that assumption.
The second law of motion (F=ma) states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Unbalanced forces occur when the net force acting on an object is not zero, causing the object to accelerate in the direction of the net force. This relationship between unbalanced forces and the second law of motion explains how objects accelerate or change their motion when unequal forces are applied to them.
Yes, an object at rest can have forces acting on it. The vertical forces acting on an object at rest would include gravity pulling it downward and the normal force from a surface pushing it upward to balance the force of gravity.
Unequal forces acting on an object result in a net force that causes the object to accelerate or change its velocity. This is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.

If the forces acting on an object are equal there is no motion (5N->O<-5N). If the forces are unequal there is movement (7N-->O<-5N).
Gravity affects all objects equally, regardless of their mass or size. However, objects with greater mass will have a stronger gravitational force acting on them, causing them to accelerate more towards the center of the gravitational field. Objects with lower mass will experience a weaker gravitational force and therefore accelerate less.
If there are two or more unequal forces acting on an object then the object will be acting on the forces. ^_^

Unequal forces in opposite directions can result in a net force acting in the direction of the larger force. This can cause an object to accelerate in the direction of the greater force due to the imbalance in forces acting on it.
Physics is a natural science because it seeks to understand and explain natural phenomena in the physical world. It focuses on studying the fundamental properties of matter, energy, space, and time, using mathematical models and empirical observations. By analyzing the interactions and forces that govern the universe, physics provides insights into the underlying principles that shape the world around us.
The object will accelerate in the direction of the greater force due to the net force acting on it. The acceleration of the object will be directly proportional to the net force applied.
Unequal forces acting in opposite directions create a net force that will cause an object to accelerate in the direction of the greater force. The resulting motion depends on the difference between the forces and the mass of the object.
No, all objects do not necessarily have two forces acting on them at all times. Objects can have multiple forces acting on them simultaneously, or just one force, depending on the situation.
All objects accelerate if the forces acting on them are not balanced.
