In which situation are unbalanced forces acting on an object?
yeah got a 2/5 so hope this helps
1 Two people stand on the same side of a large tire. Both people pull the tire with equal force.
2 an object’s resistance to a change its motion
3 The car moves forward, while inertia keeps the balloon in place.
4 The unbalanced forces of air resistance and gravity slow the airplane and pull it down.
5 An unbalanced force can change both the object's direction and speed.
hope im not late <3
@KylehB idek what to put’s answers are correct, I used them to double check mine and they were all correct.
So who has the answers?
Unbalanced forces occur when the net force acting on an object is not zero. This means that there is either a single force acting on the object or multiple forces in different directions whose magnitudes do not cancel each other out. In other words, the forces are unequal and result in a net force that causes a change in the object's motion.
To identify a situation with unbalanced forces, you can follow these steps:
1. Identify all the forces acting on the object: Start by identifying the forces that are present in the given situation. Forces can include gravity, friction, applied forces, tension, air resistance, and so on.
2. Determine the direction and magnitude of each force: For each force, determine its direction by considering the orientation with respect to the object. Also, calculate the magnitude, or strength, of each force if the information is provided.
3. Calculate the net force: Add up all the forces acting on the object, taking into account their magnitudes and directions. If the resulting force is not zero, then it is an unbalanced force situation.
For example, if an object is being pushed with a force of 10 Newtons to the right and experiencing a friction force of 5 Newtons to the left, the net force can be calculated by subtracting the force going left from the force going right: 10 N - 5 N = 5 N to the right. In this case, the net force is not zero, indicating that unbalanced forces are acting on the object.
