Question

The effect of force on shape of a object

Answer 1

...Effects of Force. A force acting on an object causes the object to change its shape or size, to start moving, to stop moving, to accelerate or decelerate. When there's the interaction between two objects they exert a force on each other, these exerted forces are equal in size but opposite in direction.

Answer 2

Following are the effects of force on an object;

• A static item can be moved by force.

When force is applied to a stationary item, it tends to move in the direction of the force. Applying force to a stationary tennis ball, for example, will cause it to continue moving in the direction of the provided force.

• Force can either halt or slow a moving object.

Force must be given to a moving item to either stop it or slow it down. The moving ball, for example, maybe halted by adding external force.

• Force is used to changing the direction of a moving object.

Force may be used to change the direction of a moving item. For example, changing the direction of a moving football can be accomplished by applying force at an angle.

• Force can be used to affect the form of an object.

Consider a circular rod that may be transformed into a flat sheet by hammering it with an external force.
