It is very simple. Since force is a vector quantity we have to add them vectorially. So as two are in opposite directions we get 7-5 = 2 N
As Northern force dominates over that in the southern, the resultant 2 N will also be in northern direction.
The net force on the object is 2 N north. This is calculated by subtracting the force acting south (5 N) from the force acting north (7 N).
Assuming that these are magnetic poles, it is the force of magnetic attraction.
Add up all the forces acting on the object, and be careful to take the direction ofeach force into consideration.When you do that, you'll notice that 5 pounds of force pushing the object north, and5 pounds of force pushing the object south, cancel each other and add up to zero,just as if neither of those two forces was there at all.When you finish adding up all the forces on the object in that way, whatever forceyou finish with is the net force on the object.
Interpreting the question as follows... "When is an object in equilibrium according to its component forces?"When all component forces cancel leaving no resultant force.For example - If Joe pulls on a crate with a force of 10 Newtons North, and Sally pulls on the same crate at the same time with a force of 10 Newtons South then all of the component forces combine to give a resultant force of zero. Thus the crate is in equilibrium. Math: 10 + (-10) = 0
If the magnetic poles are alike (north-north or south-south), they will repel each other due to the inverse square law of magnetic force. The force of repulsion increases as the distance between the like poles decreases.
The net force on the object is 5 newtons toward the north.
If the 10N force is positive, meaning to the north, then the 5N south would be negative, and the net force is 10N + (-5N) = 5N to the north.
Just tell me or im going to cry.. :'(
The net force is 2N north. This is because when you subtract the 5N force south from the 7N force north, you get a resultant force of 2N north.
The net force on the object is 2 N north. This is calculated by subtracting the force acting south (5 N) from the force acting north (7 N).
Take north to be the positive direction, and south to be the negative direction. Net force = 13N + (-17N) = -4N Net force = 4N to the south.
Since North and South are opposing directions, the net force will be 10 N north. One way to look at it is to define North as a positive direction. In that case, South would be negative and the net force would be 15 N - 5 N = 10 N (which, since we defined North as positive, means that the force must be directed North since the net force is positive).
As they are acting directly against each other, we can simply subtract.The resultant is 15 N to the north.
2 Newtons to the North 7-5=2 Simple math =)
7 N North is up and 5 N South is down; 7 -5 = 2 N North

We are assuming that the forces are opposite of each other, meaning that they will cancel out. Net force is simply 39-22 (or 17 newtons).
