This is the simplest case of vector addition. If two forces are acting in the same direction, then you can just add them, to get the net force.

How do you find the net force when the forces are acting in the same direction?

Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in another direction is the same as anewton?
yes becase itsdhbsdvsahdvhsjshjshj
When two or more forces are acting on an object in the same direction how do you calculate the net force?
You find the vector sum of all the forces. That is the resultant, or net, force.
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force in another direction is the same as adding a?
as adding a ".... in the opposite direction.
What is adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite direction called?
It is the same as adding a positive and adding a negative number
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite direction is the same as adding what?
A negative force. Since the force added in the opposite direction works against the original force, you would subtract the added force from the original force. Since subtracting a positive is the same thing as adding a negative, this force would be considered negative to the positive direction.
Why would a force be unbalanced?
In principle, any force acting on an object is unbalanced, UNLESS there is a second force in the opposite direction, acting on the same object.
How is net force determined if two students moving a piano exert force in the same direction?
The net force resulting from two forces acting in the same direction is the sum of their magnitudes, and continues to act in the same direction.
How do you compute the net force of forces acting in the same direction?
In the same direction, you simply add them
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite dierection is the same as adding what?
A negative force. Since the force added in the opposite direction works against the original force, you would subtract the added force from the original force. Since subtracting a positive is the same thing as adding a negative, this force would be considered negative to the positive direction.
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite direction is the same as adding an number and number?
That is equivalent to adding a positive number and a negative number. If the forces have the same magnitude, it is the same as adding a number and its additive inverse.
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite direction is the same as adding a?
Forces are vector quantities. This means they have both a magnitude and direction associated with them. If you add vectors going in the opposite directions it is the same as subtracting one from the other. Therefore, the resultant force is the difference between the forces.
