Net force is the addition of all forces applied. An example would be a still ball (a ball not in motion). The ball would be in "equilibrium" meaning that the ball is at rest, therefore, the net force of this ball would be 0.
The net force behind the pulley system can be calculated. This is an example using the word net force.

All you have to do is add all the forces. For example if you are pushing a block with a force of 5N to the right and pushing it to the left with a force of 3N the answer would be 2N to the right.
You must know the the direction so then you know if you either subtract or add. For example , if the the direction of the force is in opposite then you would have to subract each net force.

This would be known as the net-force.

net force
When forces are balanced, the net force is zero.
You will have to learn a new terminology here: net force. Net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object. For example, in a tag of war, when one team is pulling the tag with a force of 100 N and the other with 80 N, the net force would be 20 N at the direction of the first team (100 N - 80 N = 20 N).
All you have to do is add all the forces. For example if you are pushing a block with a force of 5N to the right and pushing it to the left with a force of 3N the answer would be 2N to the right.
