Question

If a sled is being pulling on the ground toward the right with a force of 100 N and friction is acting on it to the left with a force of 85 N, what is the net force

of the sled?
O 15 N to the left
15 N to the right
185 N to the right
185 N to the left

Answer 1

15 N to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 N to the right -->

85 N to the left <--

So therefore in order to find the net force of where the sled is being dragged towards is 100 N - 85 N = 15 N.

So the sled is moving towards the right of 15 N.
