The box will accelerate to the left as though a single 5 N force was pushing to the left. (5 N of each force are cancelled out, leaving 5 N of the force pushing left.)

A force 10 N pushes a mass of 4 kg to the right At the same time another force of 2N pushes the same mass to the left What is the magnitude size and direction of the resulting acceleration of the?

The masses are colinear, so we can simply add them together. Assuming to the right is the positive direction, the 10N force is written +10N, then to the left is negative, so the other force is -2N. The sum of the forces = +8N, or 8 N to the right. One newton is equal to kg*m/s2. Acceleration is force / mass, or 8/4 or 2 m/s2 in the positive direction, or to the right.


What is the net force if you push a cart to the right with N of force and a friend pushes the cart to the left with N of force?

The net force on the crate is 70 N to the left while it's moving to the left, and 20 N to the right while it's moving to the right. If the 100N force and the 50N force are acting on it at the same time, then the net force on the crate is 20 N towards the left.


A 5 n force pushes on the right side of a box. at the same time a 10 n force pushes on the left side of the box what happens to the box?

The box will accelerate to the left as though a single 5 N force was pushing to the left. (5 N of each force are cancelled out, leaving 5 N of the force pushing left.)


Find the net force including its direction what 175N to the left 234N to the right 75N to the right 225N to the left 45N to the right.?

Find the net force including its direction of the following: 175 N to the left;234N to the right;75 N to the right;225N to the left;45N to the right.


If 300-n action force is exerted to the right the reaction force will be?

300 Newtons to the left. Remember, there is an equal and opposite force. So the force is equal, 300 Newtons, and it is opposite (opposite of right is left).

Why don't the passengers fly out of the roller coasters?

What happens is the force stops it from moving to anywhere else. If it goes right, a mixture of G-force and gravity pushes it left, keeping it on the tracks.


What force pushes the blood out of the the heart and into the arteries?

The strong contractions of the right and left ventricles push the blood up through the semi lunar valves.

What is the function of the right and left auricle?

The right auricle collects the deoxygenated blood from the vena cava; the left auricle collects the oxygenated blood from the lungs. The right auricle pushes the blood towards the right ventricle; the left auircle pushes the blood towards the left ventricle.


Why are the walls of left ventricles thicker than the walls of right ventricles?

Because the left ventricle pushes blood through most vessels in the body, so it's thicker because more force is needed for the contraction.


What happen when the heart?

When the heart contracts it pushes blood out of the left Ventricle throughout the Aorta around the body. It pushes with such force it can circulate the whole body in 23 seconds.
