Question

two teams are engaged in a contest to roll a giant ball over the opponents goal line. team 1 push n. who will win, and why? team 1 wins because they push with more force. team 2 wins because they push with less force. neither because the forces are balanced. the ball will move upward because the force has to go somewhere.

Explanation:

In a force - based contest like this, the team that applies a greater force will likely cause the ball to move in their desired direction. According to Newton's second law, a larger force will result in a greater acceleration in the direction of the force. Here, Team 1 exerts more force than Team 2, so it is more likely to make the ball cross the opponent's goal line.

Answer:

Team 1 wins because they push with more force.
