In what direction does an applied force move an object?

In the same direction as the force

Independent of the force

In the opposite direction of the force

Perpendicular to the force

Respuesta :

In the same direction as the force, when a force is applied to an object it causes the object to accelerate in a certain direction which is dependent on the direction of the force applied by newton’s second law: F = ma.

Answer:

In the same direction as the force

Explanation:

In the absence of external forces, an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion, staying in a rectilinear motion and with constant speed. However, when a force is applied to an object at rest, that force interrupts the object's rest and causes it to move in the same direction as the force.

The net force applied to an object is equal to the object's mass times the acceleration caused to the body by this force. The acceleration is in the same direction as the force.
