Because it is supported by newtons 1st law.
"Every body continues in state of rest or uniform motion until and unless an external force is applied on it. ".
"Every body continues in state of rest or uniform motion until and unless an external force is applied on it. ".

The force which changes or tends to change the state of rest or uniform motion. You can assume more examples.

Here only motion has been described, when deformation is there that has not been mentioned or explained properly.

Force changes the position a body so it may destroy the motion or it may set into the motion of the body. Suppose see if a car is going on the road by application of force we can stop it. By application of force we can set the block or body in motion.

Force being an dynamic quantity when it applies to static body it comes in motion.

According to Newton's first law. "Every body continues in state of rest or uniform motion until and unless an external force is applied on it. ".

According to definition of force in engineering mechanics, "Force is defined as a agent of pull or push, which results in the motion of the body or stops the motion of the body".

A answer is correct because force = mass*acceleration. It is a agent of pull or push means motion depend on force.

The answer is correct because motion always equal to multiple of mass and acceleration so we can also said that it produce or tend to produce or destroy tends to destroy motion.

Force give more motion for a motion but it can destroys motion only only if it opposite.
