If a rock is sitting on the ground, how could we explain the forces acting up it?
The force is unbalanced because the wind causes the rock to move.
The force is balanced because gravity exerts pressure equal to the ground.
The force is unbalanced because the rock is heavier than the ground.
The force is balanced because the air and the rock weigh the same.
