More than one force can act on an object at once. For example, two people could push on a book at the same time. One person could push toward the left and the other could push toward the right. In this case the two forces would act against each other. If the force toward the left was greater than the force toward the right, then the prevailing force would be toward the left. The strength of this prevailing force would be the difference between the strengths of the two separate forces. In this prevailing force is called the net force. Basically, the word net means total. For example, if one person pushed the book with a force of 20 Newtons toward the left, and the other person pushed the book with a force of 18 Newtons toward the right, then that the net force would be 2 Newtons in size and directed toward the left. Here is a picture showing those forces:

Why is a netforce is a vector quantity?

A net force is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of the net force is crucial in determining the resulting motion of an object, as it influences the acceleration and ultimately the change in velocity of the object.


When an netforce on an object the amount of acceleration depends on the objects?

When a net force acts on an object, the object's acceleration is directly proportional to the net force applied and inversely proportional to the object's mass. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that acceleration equals the net force divided by the object's mass.

A box weighs 35 n with gravity applying that force downward if you apply 39 n upward force to pick it up what is the netforce applied?

The net force applied is equal to the difference between the upward force and the weight of the box. In this case, it would be 39 N - 35 N = 4 N. Therefore, a net force of 4 N is applied to pick up the box.
