Question
what happens when unequal forces are exerted in opposite directions? there will be no change in motion. the forces are in equilibrium. there is no net force. there will be a change in motion.
When unequal forces act in opposite directions, they form an unbalanced force system. According to Newton's laws, unbalanced forces cause a change in an object's motion (acceleration). Balanced forces (equal in magnitude, opposite in direction) result in no net force and no motion change. Here, since forces are unequal, they are unbalanced, leading to a motion change.
