Assume all other forces on the dresser are balanced. Which statement describes the forces on the dresser?
A: The forces are unbalanced, so there is a net force on the dresser.
B: The forces are balanced, so there is no net force on the dresser.
To determine if there is a net force on the dresser, look at the forces:
Sophie is pushing the dresser forward with a force of 350 N.
The carpet is pushing the dresser backward with a force of 380 N.
The forces are in opposite directions, and the forces have different magnitudes: 350 N and 380 N. This means that the forces are unbalanced, so there is a net force on the dresser.
