**Forces on a Block on a Table****Scenario Description:**Two horizontal forces, \( \vec{P} \) and \( \vec{Q} \), are acting on a block placed on a table. The force \( \vec{P} \) is directed to the left, but the direction of \( \vec{Q} \) is unknown; it could either be directed to the right or to the left. The object moves along the x-axis, and it is assumed there is no friction between the object and the table. The force \( P = -8.4 \, \text{N} \) and the mass of the block is \( 3.5 \, \text{kg} \).**Questions:**(a) What is the magnitude and direction of \( \vec{Q} \) (in N) when the block moves with constant velocity? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)\[ \text{Input Answer: } \_\_\_ \, \text{N} \](b) What is the magnitude and direction of \( \vec{Q} \) (in N) when the acceleration of the block is \( +5.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)\[ \text{Input Answer: } \_\_\_ \, \text{N} \](c) Find the magnitude and direction of \( \vec{Q} \) (in N) when the acceleration of the block is \( -5.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)\[ \text{Input Answer: } \_\_\_ \, \text{N} \]**Diagram Explanation:**The diagram shows a block with force \( \vec{P} \) acting on it to the left. The direction of \( \vec{Q} \) is not shown, indicating it needs to be determined.---This explanation aims to help students understand the effects of forces on objects in motion, specifically focusing on determining unknown forces given conditions of velocity or acceleration.
