Question

PLS HELP DUE TODAY Under each diagram, write the net force and the direction in which the boxes will move.

Answer 1

Explanation:

the red box will move in left direction with 120N.

the blue box will move in upward direction with 120 Newton force.

the green box will move in left direction with 20 Newton force.

Answer 2

Red box and blue box are under unbalanced force and green box is under balanced force.

Explanation:

BALANCED FORCE

• In the case of balanced force, the body is acted upon by forces in opposite direction.
• When equal forces act in each direction, it results in zero net force. And the body remains in equilibrium state.
• There is no acceleration in the body.
• If it was initially at rest, it remains at rest and if it was in motion, it remains in constant motion.  

UNBALANCED FORCE

• When the force of direction is applied only in one direction, the net force is non-zero.
• Or when the forces acting on each side is not equal, then the net resultant force decides the direction of motion.
• There is acceleration in the system as a result of non zero resultant force.

RED BOX

The force here is unbalanced and the box moves in right direction, i.e. in the direction of force with magnitude of 120 Newtons.

BLUE BOX

The force here is unbalanced and the box moves in upward direction, i.e. in the direction of force with magnitude of 120 Newtons.

GREEN BOX

The force here is balanced and the net force is zero. The box stays in equilibrium.
