1. which of the following statements about forces is true?

forces only have direction.
forces only have magnitude.
forces have magnitude and direction.
forces do not have magnitude or direction.

Explanation:

Force is a vector quantity. By definition, a vector quantity has both magnitude (size or amount) and direction. For example, when you push a box, you can describe how hard you push (magnitude) and in which direction (like to the left or right). So, forces must have both magnitude and direction.

Answer:

Forces have magnitude and direction.
