Question

Study the scenario.

Answer 1

3N

This is because unbalanced opposite forces form a resultant force (as an object can’t move in 2 different directions) so the 4N to the right And 1N on the left form a resultant force as the smaller force is taken from the larger force 4N-1N to form a resultant force of 3N to the right.

Answer 2

Answer:

The net force acting on the car is 3 N.

(d) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 4 N to the right

Friction force = 1 N to the left

We need to calculate the net force acting on the car

According to the question,

When a toy car is pushed across the floor with a force then the normal force applied to the right and the frictional force applied to the left on the car.

Then, the net force = normal force - frictional force

Using formula of net force

$F_{net}=F-F_{k}$

$F_{net}=4-1$

$F_{net}=3\ N$

Hence, The net force acting on the car is 3 N.
