Question

practice it! the blue and red robots are both pulling on a wagon. select the statement(s) that accurately describe the forces in the image. the forces applied by the red and blue robots are equal and balanced. the red force has a greater force than the blue, so the net force is not zero. the direction of the force applied is to the right, with the red force. the net force is zero. the two forces applied to the wagon are not balanced.

Explanation:

If the forces applied by the red and blue robots are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, the net - force on the wagon is zero and the forces are balanced. If one force is greater than the other, the net - force is non - zero and the forces are unbalanced. Without seeing the image, we assume based on physical principles of forces. If the forces are equal and opposite, the net force is zero and they are balanced. If one is stronger, the net force is non - zero and the direction is that of the stronger force.

Answer:

If the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction:
The forces applied by the red and blue robots are equal and balanced.
The net force is zero.
If the red force is greater:
The red force has a greater force than the blue, so the net force is not zero.
The direction of the force applied is to the right, with the red force.
The two forces applied to the wagon are not balanced.
