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

If forces are balanced, what does it mean for the object's motion?

Back

If forces are balanced, the object will either remain at rest or continue to move at a constant speed.

Front

What happens when forces are unbalanced?

Back

When forces are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force.

Front

How do you calculate net force when two forces act in opposite directions?

Back

Subtract the smaller force from the larger force and indicate the direction of the larger force.

Front

What is the net force if 50 N is applied to the right and 30 N to the left?

Back

The net force is 20 N to the right.

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

The unit of force is Newton (N).

Front

If an object has a net force of 0 N, what can we say about the forces acting on it?

Back

The forces acting on it are balanced.

Front

What does it mean for an object to be in equilibrium?

Back

An object is in equilibrium when the net force acting on it is zero.

Front

What is the net force acting on a 10 kg object at rest?

Back

The net force is 0 N.

Front

If a box is pushed with 40 N to the right and 40 N to the left, what is the net force?

Back

The net force is 0 N.
