If an object is not moving are the forces acting on it balanced? Yes or no?why?

Physics

This is another time to look at Newton's 2nd law of motion:

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the object is not moving, then its acceleration is certainly zero, and Newton's law looks like this:

Net Force = (mass) x (zero)

or  Net Force = (zero) .

"Net Force = zero" means that if there ARE any forces acting on the object, then they add up to zero, and we call them "balanced" forces.

So the answer is '<em>yes</em>', and that's why.

murzikaleks [220]

Hello there!  Yes, this is a TRUE statement.

Conditional means something happens on the condition of something else happening. In this case, the something else happening is if the child "child is well-behaved or meets set expectations", and the thing happening because of this is the caregiver's " love, affection, and acceptance". If the child was not any of the things listed, the caregiver would not be the things listed.

I hope this helps, have a great day! :)
