A wheeled cart is moving to the right at a constant speed.  Two forces of equal magnitude are acting upon the cart. Which of the following best describes the forces and motion of the cart?

• Balanced Forces, Constant Speed
• Balanced Forces, Acceleration
• Unbalanced Forces, Constant Speed
• Unbalanced Forces, Acceleration

What is the net force?

• 40 N left
• 0 N Balalnced
• 400 N right
• 40 N right

If two forces act on an object in the same direction, the net force is the _____________

• the difference between the two forces
• the sum of the two forces
• Only one of the forces acts on the object
• DOOMSDAY!

How could you make an object increase its speed?

• use less force
• use more force
• use no force

What is the net force?

• 400 N Up
• 400 N Down
• - 400 N Down
• 800 N Down

Why does a book on a table not move?

• No forces are acting on the book
• Gravity is the only force acting on the book
• Forces of the table pushing up and gravity pulling down are balanced

What will cause an object to move?

• Applied forces
• Balanced forces
• Unbalanced forces

(T or F?) A balanced force is only an object that is not moving. 

• True 
• False

Are forces balanced or unbalanced when a car is moving at a constant speed in a straight line?

• Balanced
• Unbalanced
