Question

What happens when an object at rest is subjected to a force?

  1. It may start moving
  2. It may stop moving 
  3. It may change direction
  4. All of the above

hintHint:

When an object at rest is subjected to a force, it starts moving.

The correct answer is: It may start moving


    • Force cause some consequences to an object that can be explained as the effect of force.
    • The effects of the force will be dependent on the state of the object before applying the force.
    • If the force is applied to an object in a resting position, it leads the object to start moving.
