What is Net Force?

Back

Net Force is the overall force acting on an object when all the individual forces are combined. It determines the object's motion.

Front

How do you calculate Net Force?

Back

Net Force is calculated by adding all the forces acting on an object, taking into account their direction. If forces are in opposite directions, subtract the smaller force from the larger one.

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

The unit of force is Newton (N).

Front

What does it mean if the Net Force is zero?

Back

If the Net Force is zero, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is a force that opposes the motion of objects that touch as they move past each other.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is the force that pulls objects toward the Earth or any other massive body.

Front

If two forces of 10 N and 5 N act in the same direction, what is the Net Force?

Back

The Net Force is 15 N.

Front

If a 20 N force pulls to the right and a 10 N force pulls to the left, what is the Net Force?

Back

The Net Force is 10 N to the right.

Front

What happens to an object if the Net Force acting on it is greater than zero?

Back

The object will accelerate in the direction of the Net Force.

Front

What is a balanced force?

Back

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in a Net Force of zero.
