Want this question answered?
I'd call it the resultant, but "net force" is a good name too.
A non-zero net force, also called an unbalanced force, will cause an acceleration. The amount of the acceleration can be calculated by Newton's Second Law.
Net force is the total force acting on a body You can also use "the total net force on the piano was about 45 N". Both of these sentences work.
Since it is a vector sum, you can call it a resultant force. It is also known as the net force acting on the object.
Newton's Second Law is usually written as:F = ma (Newton didn't write it like this, originally.) Solving for acceleration: a = F/m So, to get the acceleration, you divide the net force by the mass.
The net force would be 0N
The basic equation is: force equals mass times acceleration.
The net force would be 0N
It is in equilibrium.
accelerating force
Net Force
I'd call it the resultant, but "net force" is a good name too.
If an object doesn't move, then the net force on it is called "zero".
that is called the net force; it is a vector sum of all the forces acting on it
net force
If the forces are balanced, the net force is zero. This also means that the object is not accelerating. (net force = mass x acceleration)
A non-zero net force, also called an unbalanced force, will cause an acceleration. The amount of the acceleration can be calculated by Newton's Second Law.
