what is an example of a balanced force and an unbalanced force?

Question

uhh hey Goring..YOU ARE WRONG. my homework asks for examples which means i need to come up with some example for it. there are none that i can come up with and there are none in the book. so..keep the dumbness to yourself.

Answer 1

ummm...
a balnaced force is something that is not moving maybe a textbook on a table.
you can explain this because teh normal force of the table exerts on the books equals the force of gravity.

an unbalanced force is something that is moving(not at constant speed) so maybe a rocket rising up into space.

this can be explained because the force fo the upward thrust is larger than the force of the downward weight.

i hope that i helped, if not write something back.

Answer 2

You are asking about forces acting on one and the same object.
But the question does not explicitly convey it.

Hence Goring has answered you about interacting forces between two matters.
Regarding your question, when many forces act on an object the resultant of all forces can be found and the resultant effectively will replace all other forces put together.

If the net or resultant forces are zero, the object will be at rest or in uniform motion. Other wise there will be acceleration of the object.

What you call as balanced and unbalanced force is about finding the resultant of all forces.

You can give plenty of examples for unbalanced forces.
Every object which is at rest or in uniform motion is under the action of balanced forces.

A book on table is at rest because the weight and normal reaction forces are balanced. Ship floats since the up thrust balances its weight, etc. A train or bus moving with constant speed is under the action of the balanced forces due to engine and friction.

Any accelerated motion is under the action of unbalanced force.
An apple freely falling from tree is under the action of unbalanced force.

A simple pendulum is oscillating under the action of unbalanced force at every instant, except at the equilibrium position. At the equilibrium position it there is balanced forces. The tensiion and weight are balanced . But the bob has a veocity.

Answer 3

Remember that for every force there is an equal and opposite force.

An example is that you place a lamp on a table. The lamp exerts a force on the table and the table exerts and equal force so the lamp stays put.

If a large half ton rock is placed on the table, then the table falls over and probably breaks because the two forces are not balanced.

Answer 4

Accoring to Newton's 3rd law of motion ,forces come into existence by pairs as a result of interaction between two mass structures.
Therefore the Idea of Umbalance forces is basically a misnomer. Since according to Newton ,there is no such thing as umbalanced forces. Forces are borne into existence as equal in magnetude and opposite in direction.
Therefore if umbalance forces dont exist ,it is impossible to give you an example.
