A soccer ball rests on the ground in a stationary position. Which of the following best describes the forces acting on the ball?

A. accelerating forces
B. unequal forces
C. balanced forces
D. unbalanced forces

1 answer

C. balanced forces

When a soccer ball is resting on the ground in a stationary position, the forces acting on it are balanced. The gravitational force pulling it downward is equal to the normal force from the ground pushing it upward, resulting in no net force acting on the ball.
