A trolley on a smooth track is pulled eastward by a 60 N force and westward by a 40 N force. (i) Are the horizontal forces initially balanced or unbalanced? (ii) A student now adds an extra horizontal force toward the west so that the trolley moves with constant velocity. What should be the magnitude of this added force? a) (i) Balanced; (ii) 20 N b) (i) Unbalanced; (ii) 40 N c) (i) Unbalanced; (ii) 20 N d) (i) Balanced; (ii) 0 N
