Answer
A soccer player kicks a ball toward a net. Which statement correctly explains how far the ball will
travel?(1 point)
A stronger kick corresponds to a greater magnitude of force, so the ball will travel farther.
A stronger kick corresponds to a lesser magnitude of force, so the ball will not travel as far.

In which situation is the magnitude of the total force greater than the magnitude of each of the
individual forces?(1 point)
Two people stand on opposite sides of a large box. One pushes, and the other pulls with the same amount
of force.
Two people stand on the same side of a large box. One pushes, and the other pulls with the same amount
of force.
Four people stand on each side of a large box. All four people pull the box with the same amount of force.

The magnitude of a force refers to **the amount of force**. It quantifies how strong the force is, typically measured in units such as newtons (N) or pounds (lb).

The statement that best explains the result is: **Balanced forces do not cause motion.**
In this scenario, the two people are applying equal and opposite forces on the box, resulting in a net force of zero, which means the box remains stationary.

The correct statement is: **A stronger kick corresponds to a greater magnitude of force, so the ball will travel farther.**
In general, a stronger kick applies more force to the ball, resulting in greater acceleration and distance traveled.

The situation in which the magnitude of the total force is greater than the magnitude of each of the individual forces is: **Four people stand on each side of a large box. All four people pull the box with the same amount of force.**
In this case, since all the forces are acting in the same direction (pulling), the total force is the sum of the individual forces, resulting in a greater magnitude.
