To accurately determine which statement best describes the forces acting on the box, we need to consider the net force based on the direction and magnitude of the forces pulling on the box.
If the forces are balanced (meaning they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction), the net force would be 0N, and the box would remain stationary or move at a constant velocity.
If the forces are unbalanced, one direction will have a greater total force than the other, resulting in a net force that indicates which side the box will move toward.
Since I don't have access to the diagram, I can't see the specific values and directions of the forces. However, you can determine the correct statement by looking at the forces:
1. If the forces pulling to the left equal the forces pulling to the right, then the first statement is correct.
2. If the forces to the left are greater than those to the right by 6 Newtons, then the second statement is correct.
3. If the forces to the right are greater than those to the left by 6 Newtons, then the third statement is true.
4. If the forces are balanced but their total is 14 Newtons directed to the left, then the last statement is accurate.
Please evaluate the diagram accordingly to choose the correct answer.
