Question: 1 / 400

What is the result of an object experiencing a balanced force?

The object will accelerate significantly

The object will remain in its current state of motion

When an object experiences balanced forces, it means that the total force acting on the object is equal to zero. This results in no net force, and according to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Thus, if the forces acting on it are balanced, the object will not change its state of motion, which includes not speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. Therefore, the object remains in its current state of motion, whether that state involves being stationary or moving at a constant speed in a straight line.
