Question

1. choose the best answer. two teams are engaged in a contest to roll a giant ball over the opponent’s goal line. team 1 pushes with a force of 1000 n, while team 2 applies a force of 1000 n. who will win, and why? team 1 wins because they push with more force. team 2 wins because they push with less force. the ball will move upward because the force has to go somewhere. neither because the forces are balanced.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze force magnitudes

Team 1 applies 1000 N and Team 2 applies 1000 N.

Step2: Recall force - balance concept

When two equal and opposite forces act on an object, the forces are balanced.

Step3: Determine motion result

Balanced forces result in no net force, so no acceleration and no movement in the direction of the forces.

Answer:

Neither because the forces are balanced.
