Question

Study the scenario.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Number 1.

Explanation:

The correct answer to your question is number 1. The car will stop immediately because 2 balanced forces will cause an object stop moving.

If we apply a force of 6 N to the left and another person applies a force of 6 N to right both forces are cancel and the result is O, so the car will stop moving.

Answer 2

Answer: The car will stop immediately because two balanced forces will cause an object to stop moving.

Explanation:

Balanced forces are defined as the forces that gets cancelled out when equal forces are acting in the opposite direction. The net force on the system comes becomes 0.

Unbalanced forces are defined as the forces that does not get cancelled out because unequal forces act on the system in opposite direction. The motion of the object is in the direction of net force.

According to the question:

Force exerted by me on the car in left direction = 6 N

Force exerted by my friend on the car in right direction = 6 N

Net force acting on the car = 6 - 6 = 0 N

As, the net force on the car is 0 N, the car will come to rest.

Hence, the car will stop immediately because two balanced forces will cause an object to stop moving.
