Question

An object is being pulled to the right. To make the object move to the left, you would have to apply a force to the left that is _____ the force to the right.

choices:
equal to
greater than
less than

Answer 1

Greater than is the answer. Pulling an equal force provides no acceleration and no movement. Pulling less than would still cause the object to move to the right.

Answer 2

greater than

Step-by-step explanation:

The object will only move to the left if the force pushing to the left is greater than the force pushing to the right.
