The unbalanced force acting on an object is zero. What is the direction and magnitude of the object's velocity and acceleration?

Question 2

In the experiment, m1 and m2 have the same value. How would the data change if m1 and m 2 were slightly different in value?

Answer to Question 1

The velocity may be zero, or the velocity may have any direction and magnitude, but
the velocity must be constant. The acceleration must be zero.

Answer to Question 2

The values for the unbalanced force would be slightly more or less. These values
would not be known to the observer, and the data collected would be inaccurate.
