The net force on a 7 pound object that is falling (accelerating down) is 7 pounds. If it is not falling or moving at a constant speed, it is zero.
Any force that is more than 50 pounds will lift a 50-pound object. The greater the force is, the greater the object's upward acceleration, and the sooner the object will reach any given height.
25 newtons
Ignoring air resistance ... Any object dropped near the Earth's surface reaches a speed of 43.9 feet per second after falling 30 feet. The velocity is 43.9 feet per second down. The object's weight makes no difference.
You could have 'newton-centimeters', or 'newton-inches', or 'pound meters' etc., but you can't have 'newton pounds'. Torque is (a distance) x (a force), but 'newton pound' is (force) x (force). Whether or not that has any physical significance at all, it's surely not torque.
If it's floating, then the buoyant force on it is exactly equal to its weight. (That makes the vector sum of the vertical forces zero, which is why the object is not accelerating vertically.)
Any force that is more than 50 pounds will lift a 50-pound object. The greater the force is, the greater the object's upward acceleration, and the sooner the object will reach any given height.
A one pound force applied in a pulling fashion on an object.
the answer is 50 pounds.
no force, it has momentum
Any unit of force that appeals to you.The "pound-force" (usually called simply the "pound") and the "newton" are the most popular. Note: The "gram" and the "kilogram" are NOT units of force.
it depends how far they are falling

The question cannot be answered sensibly because a pound is a measure of mass which is not the same as weight. The weight of an object depends on the force of gravity acting o it and that force depends on the position of the object and other masses near it.

A 150 pound resultant force
Basically it is the object's "weight". The gravitational force on an object is its Mass X Gravitational Constant. The gravitational constant is the acceleration of a free falling body towards another body, and on Earth is equal to 9.81 meters/sec2 or 32.2 feet/sec2. Thus while the MASS of an object is a constant physical property, the WEIGHT of an object depends on the local gravity field pulling on that MASS.
(1,500 pounds) x (60 inches) / (12 inches per foot) = 7,500 foot-pounds
