FaMB 'right' string has default value of "left"

[oliver-phet]

This may just be an old unused string, but one translator already wrote in about it:

It seems the sim uses rightForce and leftForce. If there is another use for these strings, it should be corrected, if not can these be removed?

(Logging in Rosetta because I want to ensure this isn't a Rosetta issue before assigning to the sim dev)

I just got the strings from the published sim (https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/forces-and-motion-basics/latest/forces-and-motion-basics_en.html):

If you scroll down a bit, you see:

    "FORCES_AND_MOTION_BASICS/left": "‪left‬",
    "FORCES_AND_MOTION_BASICS/right": "‪left‬",

So I don't think this is an issue with the translation utility.

It looks like @jessegreenberg is the responsible dev for FAMB. I am going to transfer this issue and remove my assignment. If anyone needs anything please re-assign me.
