Which of the following scenarios accurately describes magnitude and direction?(1 point) Responses A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a northward force of 5 kN. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a northward force of 5 kN. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kg. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kg. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kN. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kN. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 10 kN

To accurately describe magnitude and direction, we need to consider the forces acting on the car.
1. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a northward force of 5 kN. - This is false; the northward force would add to the existing force, not stop it.
2. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kg. - This is incorrect; forces are measured in newtons (kN) and cannot be compared to mass (kg) directly.
3. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kN. - This is correct; a southward force of 5 kN would exactly counteract the northward force, bringing the car to a stop.
4. A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 10 kN. - This is also correct; a southward force of 10 kN would exceed the northward force and bring the car to a stop.
Based on these descriptions, the most accurate statements would be:
- A southward force of 5 kN will stop the car.
- A southward force of 10 kN will also stop the car.
The key correct response is: **A car traveling northward with 5 kN of force could be brought to a stop by a southward force of 5 kN.**
