You must know the the direction so then you know if you either subtract or add.

For example , if the the direction of the force is in opposite then you would have to subract each net force.

Why is it useful to know net force?

you can the effect of the net force in the object motion


Why is UseFul know to the net force?

If you know the net force on an object, you can determin the effect of the net force on the objects motion. (I got this answer from my text book. Therefore, it's right)


How do you find the net force of a shopping cart that you already know the acceleration?

The basic equation is: force equals mass times acceleration.


What must you know about an object Moving in a straight line to calculate its acceleration?

You must know its mass and the net force. If it is moving at constant velocity, the net force is zero and the acceleration is zero.


If the net force On an an object is zero what do you know about all of the forces acting on the object?

Net force is a combination of all the foces acting on an object.If two forces are acting in the same direction you add the forces to calculate the net force


What happens to the acceleration of an object if you increase the force of an object?

From Newton's Second Law of Motion, I know that Fnet=manet. anet is the net acceleration. From this equation, I know that Fnet is proportional to anet. THis means that if I decrease the net force, I decrease the net acceleration. If I increase the net force, I increase the net acceleration. If your Fnet equation is Fnet=Fapp-Ff, then increasing the applied force would also increase the net acceleration. Therefore, more applied fore, more acceleration.


Inertia will not be affected when this type of force is zero.?

Inertia will not be affected when "net" or "net force" is zero.


What is the net force for 70N and 45N?

To find the net force, subtract the smaller force from the larger force. Net force = 70N - 45N = 25N. Therefore, the net force is 25 Newtons.


What Combination of all of the force acting on an object?

The net force acting on an object is the combination of all individual forces acting on it. It is the vector sum of all forces, taking into account their magnitudes and directions. The net force determines the acceleration of the object according to Newton's second law of motion.


What is the synonmey of net force?

The synonym for net force is resultant force.


If you know the objects mass and acceleration you can determine the net force being exerted on the object?

True


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.
