Question

6. Find the net force acting on the books below

Answer 1

F(net) = 7 - 3 = 4 N

Step-by-step explanation:

• The net force on an object is the combined effect of all the pushing and pulling forces actually acting on the object.
• The net force acting on the book is F = 4 N
• The net force on an object is the combined effect of all the pushing and pulling forces actually acting on the object.
• If the forces pushing or pulling on an object are not balanced then the object will accelerate in the direction of the net force
• If the forces pushing or pulling on an object are balanced then the object will be in the rest position.
