Question

Responses

a force applied in the opposite direction with the same magnitude at the same time
a force applied in the opposite direction with the same magnitude at the same time

a force applied in the same direction with a greater magnitude at the same time
a force applied in the same direction with a greater magnitude at the same time

a force applied in the opposite direction with a greater magnitude at the same time
a force applied in the opposite direction with a greater magnitude at the same time

a force applied in the same direction with the same magnitude at the same time

Answer 1

The option that describes an action that could prevent the object from moving is:

a force applied in the opposite direction with the same magnitude at the same time.

This means that the two forces cancel each other out, resulting in a net force of zero, which prevents the object from moving.
