How do you compare the direction of your partner's and your force?
When you stand on a floor, the normal force acting on you is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to your weight.
When the cardboard is at rest, the magnitudes of the pair of forces acting on it are equal in order to maintain equilibrium. The direction of the forces is opposite, with one force pushing in one direction and the other force pushing in the opposite direction, creating a balanced system.
The electric field and force due to it in a region both point in the same direction for a positive test charge. This means that the direction of the force acting on a positive test charge will be the same as the direction of the electric field in that region.
Acceleration is proportional to net force.That means that acceleration is equal to (net force) times (something).The 'something' is [ 1 / (the mass of the object being accelerated by the force) ].
Both unbalanced force and balanced force can have direction. Unbalanced force causes acceleration in the direction of the force, while balanced force results in no net motion as the forces cancel each other out. The direction of the force determines how an object will move or behave.
The direction of the force of friction is such that it opposes the direction of motion that an object would move if there were no frictional force acting on the object.
It is in most cases opposite to the direction of motion.
The "force" of friction is always exactly opposite the direction of motion.
The direction of friction is opposite to the direction of motion. This means that when an object is moving in one direction, the friction force is acting in the opposite direction, trying to slow down or stop the object.

Force changes either the speed or the direction of motion, or both.
Pulleys change the direction of a force.
An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force acting upon it. While she is traveling at a consant speed, the forces due to friction, wind resistance, and so forth are countered by the equal-in-strength but opposing force of the engine. When she applies the brakes, the engine is no longer pushing, so there is a net force in the opposite direction of her motion. This net force accelerates her in the opposite direction of her motion -- we call this deceleration. So, long story short, the direction of the net force is opposite to the direction of her original motion (backwards).
