Balanced and Unbalanced Forces Worksheet

This document contains a worksheet with questions about balanced and unbalanced forces. The questions ask students to calculate net forces in situations where multiple forces are applied to an object, such as two boys pulling a wagon with different magnitudes of force in the same direction, a husband and wife moving a table where they push and pull with different magnitudes of force in the same direction, and two classes playing tug of war pulling with different magnitudes of force in opposite directions. The worksheet also asks students to define what a balanced force and unbalanced force are.
