what are the differences between balanced and unbalanced force? give one example for
Answers
Answer:
Balanced forces
If a set of forces acting on a body produce no acceleration in it, then forces are said to be balanced.
eg - When we try to push a heavy box and it does not move, the force applied by us is balanced by the friction force acting on the box by the ground.
Unbalanced force
If a set of forces acting on a body produces some non zero acceleration, forces are said to be unbalanced.
eg - When we drag a box on the floor, there is an unbalanced force acting on the box
Answer:
In balanced forces, the magnitude of the two forces is equal, whereas, in the case of unbalanced forces, the magnitude of the two forces are unequal. In balanced forces, the two individual forces act in opposite direction. Conversely, in unbalanced forces, the individual forces either act in same or opposite direction.
Any two forces acting on each other, which are not equal and opposite ( thereby causing motion ) are unbalanced forces. For example, when you push a wall with a force, neither you nor the wall moves. The wall applies an equal amount of force in the opposite direction. This is an example of balanced force.
