If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, what will occur?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The answer is acceleration.

Explanation:

Acceleration- When it comes to science, Force is defined as a "push or pull" of an object with mass that causes it to change velocity.

Balanced Force- This occurs when two forces of the same mass or size are acting on a particular object in opposite direction. The object being acted upon could <em>either stay in its place or move in a uniform speed and direction.</em>

Unbalanced Force- This occurs when the forces applied are not equal and are of different direction. For example, a 55-kg person pulling a 30-kg cart. The cart will move to the direction of the pull.

Thus, when forces acting on an object are unbalanced, it causes the object to accelerate. This acceleration is directly proportional to the "net force", but is inversely proportional to the mass or size.

<u>A net force</u> is the total amount of force that is acting on the object.

Luis set a glass of ice water out side is the sunshine . when he looked at the glass 10 minutes later, the contents had changed.
abruzzese [7]

well its evaporation cuz it the suns heat heated the ice to the point where it turned to a gas, it could be conduction cuz the heat of the sunshine conducted the ice and turned it to a gas but that would be evaporation too so its not onduction, its not a chemical change cuz theres no new molecule the substance is itself, and its not a sudden change obviously

so the answer is A. evaporation~~~
