In gymnastics, a gymnast must be able to balance on a balance beam. What is the best explanation for what forces are acting on the gymnast on a balance beam? (2 points)

The forces are balanced when the force of gravity pulling you down is the same as the force of the balance beam pushing you up.

The forces are unbalanced when the force of gravity pulling you down is the same as the force of your legs pushing you up.

The forces are balanced when the force of gravity pulling you down is stronger than the force of the balance beam pushing you up.

The forces are unbalanced when the force of gravity is reduced to the same force as the balance beam pushing you up.
