If sally and Sam both push on a box with a force of 40,n but in opposite directions what will happen to the box

Answer 1

If Sally and Sam both push on a box with a force of 40 N but in opposite directions, the box will experience a net force of zero. The forces exerted by Sally and Sam cancel each other out, resulting in no overall movement or acceleration of the box. The box may, however, experience a slight compression or deformation due to the opposing forces.
