When balanced forces act on an object at rest, the object will not move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.
With weather ballons carry instruments to measure the temperature ,pressure,wind direction and wind speed
Explanation:
Since it is mentioned that the block is in equilibrium, this means the resultant force is zero, and all the forces cancel out each other.
You have to think it in a way so that, the forward force cancel out the backward force. Check the picture attached, on the forward side,
3N + 5N = 8N which cancel out the backward force of 8N
Umm, I guess it really depends on what these numbers are for but what I can say is if you put this under physics then decimals are used very often and help express parts of numbers for this particular problem.And if it's directly between the two then it's 0.50 added to that smaller number,I hope that helps
