A book is resting on a table in a state of equilibrium. Which statement is true about the forces acting on the book? (1 point)
The book experiences unbalanced forces because the force of gravity pulling down on the book and the force of the table pushing up are equal.
The force of gravity pulling down the book and the force of the table pushing up on the book are equal.
• The book experiences balanced forces because the force of gravity pushing down on the book is greater.
The book experiences unbalanced forces from friction, gravity and the table.

To analyze the forces acting on the box, we have:
- A force of 14 N applied in one direction (let's assume to the right).
- A force of 8 N applied in the opposite direction (to the left).
To determine whether the forces are balanced or unbalanced, we calculate the net force:
Net Force = 14 N (right) - 8 N (left) = 6 N (to the right).
Since the net force is not zero (6 N to the right), the forces are unbalanced.
Because the net force is to the right, the box will move to the right.
Thus, the correct answer is: **Unbalanced forces and it moves to the right.**

The correct statement about the forces acting on the book resting on the table in a state of equilibrium is:
**The force of gravity pulling down the book and the force of the table pushing up on the book are equal.**
In this scenario, the force of gravity acting on the book (weight) is balanced by the normal force exerted by the table, resulting in a net force of zero. Therefore, the book remains in a state of equilibrium.
