    A constant force acting on a heavy body causes it to accelerate at a constant rate by changing its velocity. Applying a force to a stationary object causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force. However, from a moving reference frame, an object in motion that experiences a force may appear to speed up, slow down, or change direction depending on the direction of the force and the motion of the object and reference frame relative to each other.

    A constant force acting on a heavy body causes it to accelerate, i.e.

    , change
    velocity, at a constant rate. In the most basic scenario, applying a force to a
    stationary object causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force. However, if
    the object is already in motion, or if this situation is viewed from a moving
    reference frame, that body might appear to speed up, slow down, or change
    direction depending on the direction of the force and the directions that the
    object and reference frame are moving relative to each other.
