Question
Suppose that in-between the two carts is placed a spring balance. One end of the spring balance is tied to the Red cart, and the other to the Blue cart. The Red cart is held fixed, and the Blue cart is pulled with a force F newtons. What will be the force (i.e. weight) shown by the spring balance?
Group of answer choices
1-Equal to F
2-Equal to 2F
3-Equal to F/2
Suppose that in-between the two carts is placed a spring balance. One end of the spring balance is tied to the Red cart, and the other to the Blue cart. The Red cart is pulled to the left, and the Blue cart is pulled to the right. The two forces are equal, so that the carts do not move. If the force applied on the Blue cart is F newtons, what will be the force (i.e. weight) shown by the spring balance?
Group of answer choices
1-Equal to F
