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

Physics
1 answer:
xxMikexx [17]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Answer:

The force on the charge at the origin is 0 N .

Explanation:

All charges are positive. So, in x axis force exerted by the charge located in the position (10 cm, 0 cm) will be canceled with the force exerted by the charge located in the position (-10 cm, 0 cm). In the same way, in y axis the force exerted by the charge located in the position (0 cm, 10 cm) will be canceled with the force exerted by the charge located in the position (0 cm, -10 cm).
