Name the force that occurs in a rope when both ends are pulled in opposite directions?
That force is known as tension.
What is the net force produced by a 15.4 newton force and a 9.2 newton force if both forces are in opposite directions?
The net force is 15.4-9.2=6.2 Newtons in the direction of the 15.4 force.
What is the direction of tension in string?
both directions opposite each other At any little fiber at any point in the string, if the forces in both directions were not equal, then that little fiber would be accelerated in the direction of the greater force.
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.
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force acting in the opposite direction in the same as adding a?
Forces are vector quantities. This means they have both a magnitude and direction associated with them. If you add vectors going in the opposite directions it is the same as subtracting one from the other. Therefore, the resultant force is the difference between the forces.

The net force is 15.4-9.2=6.2 Newtons in the direction of the 15.4 force.

both directions opposite each other At any little fiber at any point in the string, if the forces in both directions were not equal, then that little fiber would be accelerated in the direction of the greater force.
What is the net force of 5.0 N force and an 8.0 N force acting in opposite dirrection?
You can't, unless you know both of their directions. -- If they're in the same direction, then the net force is 10N in that same direction. -- If they're in opposite directions, then the net force is zero, and the direction doesn't matter because there's no net force. -- Depending on their directions, those two forces can combine to produce a net force of anything between zero and 10 N, in any direction. So you need to know their directions in order to figure out what the net force is.

What is a series of points that extends infinitely in the opposite directions?
A line (which by definition goes on to infinity in both directions).
What is the net force when 50 N of force is coming from both directions?
zero

How much pressure does gravity exert on your body?
The force of gravity between me and the earth is the same in both directions. I'm pulled down toward the center of the earth by a force of 190 pounds, and the earth is pulled up toward the center of me by a force of 190 pounds. I call that force "my weight on earth", and it's also the earth's weight on me.
Why is the third law called the law of conservation of momentum?
Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.
