1 Chapten D namrcs.*l t,-j t acts to llnow Q: What are the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on a body?. Balanced forces do not produce a resultant force. When balanced forces act on a stationary object, the stationary object will continue to be stationary. When balanced forces act on a moving object, the moving object will continue to move at its constant speed.. Unbalanced forces produce a resultant force. When unbalanced forces act on a stationary object, the stationary object will start to move with acceleration. When unbalanced forces act on a moving object, the object will move with either acceleration or deceleration (depending on the direction of resultant force) or change its direction of motion. Q: Describe the ways in which a force may change the motion of a body.. A force can make a stationary object move as well as to make a moving object stop.. A force can change the speed of a moving object.. A force can change the direction of a moving object. Q: Explain the effects of friction on the motion of a body.. Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities between two surfaces. It therefore always opposes motion.. It will cause an accelerating object to move with lower acceleration'. It will cause an object moving at constant speed to decelerate.. It will cause a decelerating object to move with higher deceleration. $$Prouems to Solve I.
