A force is a push or pull that either makes the object speeds up, slow down, change direction etc.

When force arrows are in opposite directions what do you do to find the net force?

When force arrows are in opposite directions, you subtract the smaller force from the larger force to find the net force. If one force is greater than the other, the net force will be in the direction of the larger force.


When two forces work in opposite directions you have what?

Then you have a combined force that is smaller in magnitude than the larger of the two forces.


What happens when the resistance force is larger than the effort force?

When the resistance force is larger than the effort force, it becomes difficult to overcome the resistance. This can result in the object not moving, moving slowly, or even moving in the opposite direction. Additional force or a change in strategy may be needed to overcome the resistance.


When one force is greater than the opposite force you have?

A net resultant force.


Is the opposite of a number always less than the number?

No, the opposite of -6 would be 6, which is larger.


What is the idiom for 'larger than life'?

"Larger than life" is an idiom, so there isn't an idiom for it.


What kind of force does a porter apply to lift an object?

A porter applies an upward force called the lifting force to lift an object. This force must be larger than the weight of the object to overcome gravity and lift it.


In which direction will the drag force act if the gravitational force is less than the buoyant force?

If the gravitational force is less than the buoyant force, the drag force will act in the opposite direction of the gravitational force.


When forces act in opposite direction?

When two equal forces act in opposite directions, they are called balanced forces, and no motion takes place. If they are unequal, than the weakest force is cancelled out, along with an equal amount of the strongest force. For example, if an object is being pushed on opposite sides with 7 and 10 newtons of force, then the 7 newton force will be entirely cancelled out, along with 7 newtons of the 10 newton force. This will leave a net force of 3 newtons acting on the object. If there is a net force (also called an unbalanced force), then motion will take place.


When the bouyant force is greater than the force of gravity an object will?

Float. Essentially, an upward force is larger than the downward force, therefore the upward force wins.


If one angle of a triangle is larger than another angle then the side opposite the larger angle is?

the smaller side


What does the side-angle inequality theorem state?

In a triangle, if one side is longer than the other side, the angle opposite the longer side is the larger angle. It state that If one angle of a triangle is larger than another angle, then the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side opposite the smaller angle.. I hope it will help in your study..... AJ
