Answer:
Explanation:
There is no set way to do this. All you have to do is define left and right. Left will be minus and right will be the opposite --- plus.
That is completely arbitrary. It could be the other way around. It does not matter.
Left is minus so: - 600 N is the force going left.
Right plus so: + 500 N
Now just add.
Net Force = +500 - 600
Net Force = - 100 N
So the Net Force is - 100 N going to the left.
