how do thrown objects behave in space?

467 viewsOtherPhysics

Imagine I threw something in space with a certain force, will it keep going forever in the direction thrown since there is no resistance? Or will it stop depending on the force?

Also suppose so much time has passed will the object still be floating (still moving a little bit here and there) or will it stand exactly still.

There is no force stopping it, there is no resistance. It will move with the same speed forever, unless a planet or sun’s gravity affects it
