The statement "A 2-N force presses down on the marble at the same time as a 1.5-N force presses up on the marble" accurately describes a balanced force.
The statement that accurately describes a balanced force is: A 2-N force presses down on the marble at the same time as a 1.5-N force presses up on the marble.
To identify a balanced force, we need to look for a situation where the total force acting on an object is zero. In this case, the 2-N force pressing down and the 1.5-N force pressing up on the marble cancel each other out, resulting in a net force of zero. This means that the forces are balanced, and the marble will not move or change its motion.
