Question

Is any force being applied to an object in a non-uniform motion?

Show answer Hide answer
Answer
Yes, a force is being applied.

Explanation

  • Non-uniform motion means the object's speed (or direction) keeps changing.
  • A change in speed or direction can only happen when a force acts.
  • So a force must be acting on an object in non-uniform motion.
Changing speed means a force is acting, so yes.
