Question

which statement is true of forces? forces do not have a specific direction. forces are measured in miles per hour. forces have strength and direction.

Explanation:

A force is a vector quantity. A vector quantity has both magnitude (strength) and direction.

• The first statement is false because forces do have a specific direction.
• The second statement is false because forces are measured in Newtons ($N$), not miles per hour (which is a unit of speed).
• The third statement is true as forces, being vectors, possess both strength (magnitude) and direction.

Answer:

Forces have strength and direction.
