Answer:

The net force is positive

Step-by-step explanation:

This would mean that altogether, the force would cause the object to always be going the same way, and if it is not gaining or losing speed, we can say the force has not changed and that the object has reached terminal velocity. It is not correct to say that the positive is greater than the negative as friction also causes some type of effect and it is neither positive nor negative
