Balanced and Unbalanced Forces Quiz

What is the definition of balanced forces?

• Two forces acting in opposite directions on an object, and they are not equal in size.

• Two forces acting in the same direction on an object, and they are equal in size.

• Two forces acting in opposite directions on an object, and one is larger than the other.

• Two forces acting in opposite directions on an object, and they are equal in size.

How can you explain balanced forces using an example?

• Balanced forces can be explained using the example of a book resting on a table. The force of gravity pulling the book downward is balanced by the upward force from the table, resulting in no motion.

• Balanced forces can be explained using the example of a car accelerating on a highway.

• Balanced forces can be explained using the example of a rocket launching into space.

• Balanced forces can be explained using the example of a ball rolling down a hill.
