What is Net Force?

Back

Net Force is the total force acting on an object when all the individual forces are combined.

Front

How do you determine the direction of Net Force?

Back

The direction of Net Force is determined by the direction of the greater force acting on the object.

Front

What happens when the Net Force is zero?

Back

When the Net Force is zero, the object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.

Front

If two forces act in opposite directions, how do you calculate the Net Force?

Back

Subtract the smaller force from the larger force and the direction of the larger force will be the direction of the Net Force.

Front

What is the Net Force if a 5N force acts to the right and a 3N force acts to the left?

Back

The Net Force is 2N to the right.

Front

What is the effect of a Net Force of 1N to the left on an object?

Back

The object will accelerate to the left.

Front

If an object has a Net Force of 0N, what can be said about the forces acting on it?

Back

The forces acting on the object are balanced.

Front

What is the Net Force if a 10N force acts to the right and a 10N force acts to the left?

Back

The Net Force is 0N.

Front

How does increasing the Net Force affect an object's motion?

Back

Increasing the Net Force will increase the acceleration of the object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating Net Force?

Back

Net Force (F_net) = Sum of all forces acting on the object.
