Question

Mrs. Moran and Mr. Moran decided to move the cabinet in their dining room. Mrs.

Moran stood on one side, and Mr. Moran stood on the other. They each pushed
with 30 N of force. What was the net force on the cabinet?

Answer 1

Answer: 0

Explanation: If they both pushed a force of 30N then it doesn’t add up but instead you subtract. so it’s 0. ur yw ;)

Answer 2

60N

Step-by-step explanation:

The net force on the cabinet is 60N.

Net force is that single force that will act like all other forces on a body. The direction of the force and magnitude is very important when resolving forces.

Force applied by Mrs. Moran = 30N

Force applied by Mr. Moran = 30N

Since they each stood on both sides and pushed, the net force will be 30N + 30N = 60N
