Electrons are important to the electric current because they are able to move from one atom to another. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and when an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged.

What is an unbalanced force
Butoxors [25]
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".

If all of the forces acting on an object all add up to zero, then we say that
<span>the group </span>of forces is balanced.  When that happens, the group of forces
has the same effect on the object as if there were no forces on it at all. 

An example: 
Two people with exactly equal strength are having a tug-of-war.  They pull
with equal force in opposite directions.  Each person is sweating and straining,
grunting and groaning, and exerting tremendous force.  But their forces add up
to zero, and the rope goes nowhere.  The <u>group</u> of forces on the rope is balanced.

On the other hand, if one of the offensive linemen is pulling on one end of
the rope, and one of the cheerleaders is pulling on the other end, then their
forces don't add up to zero, because even though they're opposite, they're
not equal.  The <u>group</u> of forces is <u>unbalanced</u>, and the rope moves.

A group of forces is either balanced or unbalanced.  A single force isn't.

friction force is the opposition to the motion of surfaces sliding across each other. what is one factor that affects the amount
ruslelena [56]

Answer

Nature of the surfaces.


Explanation

Friction is the the force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in relative motion. If two objects are in contact, one of it or both must be in motion for friction to exist.

Friction is affected by a number of factors.

One is the weight of the object. The more the weight of the object the higher the friction between it and the surface.

The other factor is the nature of the surfaces. Rough surfaces contribute to high friction while smooth surfaces reduces the friction between surfaces.
