Question

Laura sees a horse pulling a buggy. Which statement best describes the forces acting on the horse and buggy? the net forces exerted on the horse and cart are the same, but the action force is larger. The net forces exerted on the horse and cart are the same, but they are in the same direction. The net forces exerted on the horse and cart are not the same, so the two forces cancel out. The net forces exerted on the horse and cart are not the same, so they are not balanced forces

Answer 1

Answer:

d

Explanation:

Answer 2

The statement which best describes the forces acting on the horse and buggy is: D. The net forces exerted on the horse and cart are not the same, so they are not balanced forces.

The two types of force.

In Science, there are two (2) main types of force that act on all objects and these include:

1. Unbalanced force
2. Balanced force

What is a balanced force?

A balanced force refers to a type of force that is only produced when two or more forces (net forces) that are acting on an object (buggy) are equal in magnitude and as such, it does not result in a change of motion (acceleration).

In this scenario, the net forces exerted on the horse and cart are not equal or the same in magnitude, so they are not balanced forces. Thus, resulting in a change of motion of the buggy.
