The net force is calculated using vector addition. For example, if one force acting on an object in a positive direction is 5N, and an opposing force is -3N, the net force would be 5N + (-3N) = 2N.

It will be the vector sum of the forces. Since in this case they are acting in the same direction we can ignore the vector bit so 30 + 10 = 40 Newton

How do you produse a change in motion?

Motion requires a force acting upon an object. When the object changes so does motion.

Will an unalanced force acting on an object change the object motion?

Yes,unbalaced force may stop or change the direction of motion or accelarate the object.


Does the centripetal force acting on an object in uniform circular motion do work on the object?

No


How does inertia affect an object?

Inertia guarantees that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in that same motion, so long as there is no external force acting on that object. Alternately, there could be force acting on it as long as that force adds up to zero.


What type of motion is a net force acting on an object?

Accelerated motion (F=ma)


What kind of object has constant velocity?

An object at rest or in motion with no force acting upon it.


When forces are acting upon something motion occurs if?

Assuming this is a vacuum: Motion would occur only if there is no secondly force acting on the object with the same magnitude(strength) but has the opposite direction to the force you're acting upon this object.
