A brick is resting on a smooth, level surface. A student applies a force of 5 N to the brick in order to move it to
the right. The magnitude of the force of friction on the
brick is also 5 N. Which statement best describes the
effect of these two forces on the brick?
Select one:
The net force on the brick is 10 N toward the right, and the
brick begins to move.
The net force on the brick is 0 N, and the brick begins to
move.
The net force on the brick is 10 N toward the right, and the
brick remains at rest
The net force on the brick is ON, and the brick remains at
rest
