Unbalanced Forces (Physics)

Summary: The forces acting on it are unbalanced – they are not the same size. This means that they do not cancel out. The driving force from the engine is shown in blue. The resistive forces from air resistance and Friction are shown in red. Tags: science student-book-7 physics Created: 2026-05-21 Last Updated: 2026-05-21
