Sorry, but your code still has an obvious problem inside it. The code for going right won’t execute unless you’re already going left (maybe you want this , I don’t know). If not, try something like this:

function update () {

if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
{
    rigidbody.AddForce(Vector3.left*5);
}

if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
{
    rigidbody.AddForce(Vector3.right*5);
}

}
