If an elephant has a net force of 10000 N downward while experiencing an upward force of 9000 N from air resistance, what is the elephant's gravitational force downward?

-1000 N, downward
-20000 N, downward
-19000 N, downward
-0 N, the forces are balanced

Step-by-step explanation:


net \: force \: = gravitation \: force - resistance \\ 10000 = F - 9000 \\ F = 19000
