Question

Acceleration; F = - F

A force of 21 N is applied to a 10 kg sled which experiences a small force of
friction of 3 N. What is the net force on the sled?
Your answer

Answer 1

18N is the net force

Step-by-step explanation:

Since friction always acts in the opposite direction of an objects motion we subtract the applied force from the frictional force to get our resultant net force of 18N.
