What is the difference between Balanced and UnBalanced Forces?
Hi! Rosa,
Balanced forces:
Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion. They are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore, the resultant of these forces will be zero. Example: Two persons pushing a box with the same force in opposite directions.
Unbalanced forces:
Forces whose resultant is not equal to zero are called unbalanced forces.
For example: An arm wrestling competition among a strong person and a weak one. The resultant force will be in the direction of the force applied by the strong person.
Cheers!!
