Hello There!

The Net Force Is 4

First, let's remember that you find the "Net Force" of an object by the direction its going. In this case, they are both pointing in different directions.

Next, we find the "Net Force" by subtracting them and the one with the biggest force, you go in that direction.

Finally, once we subtracted 5 from 9 we get a "Net Force" of 4
