What is the net force?

Back

The 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 a force of 10 N to the right and a force of 6 N to the left are acting on an object, what is the net force?

Back

4 N to the right (10 N - 6 N = 4 N)

Front

True or False: A vector quantity always has a direction.

Back

True

Front

What is the net force if 6 N to the right and 4 N to the right are acting on an object?

Back

10 N to the right (6 N + 4 N = 10 N)

Front

If two forces of 5 N to the left and 3 N to the left are acting on an object, what is the net force?

Back

8 N to the left (5 N + 3 N = 8 N)

Front

What happens to an object if the net force acting on it is zero?

Back

The object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.

Front

What is a vector quantity?

Back

A vector quantity is a physical quantity that has both magnitude and direction, such as force, velocity, and acceleration.

Front

If Omar pulls a toy with a force of 10 N and Katey pulls with a force of 6 N in the opposite direction, who wins the toy?

Back

Omar wins the toy because the net force is 4 N towards him.

Front

What is the formula to calculate net force when two forces are acting in the same direction?

Back

Net Force = Force 1 + Force 2.

Front

What is the formula to calculate net force when two forces are acting in opposite directions?

Back

Net Force = |Force 1 - Force 2|.
