Question

Please help! I will fan and give medals!
In which case will the object move due to an unbalanced force?
A.Up = 550 N
Right = 200 N
Down = 550 N
Left = 200 N
B.Up = 300 N
Right = 300 N
Down = 300 N
Left = 250 N
C.Up = 300 N
Right = 400 N
Down = 300 N
Left = 400 N
D.Up = 450 N
Right = 450 N
Down = 450 N
Left = 450 N

Answer 1

@ranga Could you please help me? :)

Answer 2

You should have posted this in physics. Well, anyway, do you know what net force is?

Answer 3

Not really could you explain it to me?

Answer 4

@ParthKohli

Answer 5

Oh my. Hmm, requires a while.

Answer 6

OK well could you explain this question?

Answer 7

For starters... let's say I push you from the left and another guy pushes you from the right, you wouldn't move. Correct?

Answer 8

um yeah I guess

Answer 9

Do you mean if both of you are pushing at the same time?

Answer 10

You shouldn't move, because we are cancelling each other. Do you get it?

Answer 11

Yes.

Answer 12

yeah that makes more sense. :)

Answer 13

Yup, but if I start to push you harder than he does, you would start to move to the direction in which I am pushing you.

Answer 14

Exactly:)

Answer 15

Yup! So now read the question. There's these weird things written like 550 N, 200 N etc.

Answer 16

ok

Answer 17

You read them as five-fifty Newtons. A Newton is just a unit of how hard you push, just like a mile is a unit of how far you go.

Answer 18

Is it B. since right is pushing harder than the left?

Answer 19

You got it!

Answer 20

Oh wow thanks!!!

Answer 21

Because right is pushing harder than the left, the thing would start to move.

Answer 22

yes oh my goodness thanks again!!!:)

Answer 23

No problem!

Answer 24

Thank the both of you i now understand this
