<u>Given:</u>
Force acting on the car moving it to the right = F1= 300 N
Force due to friction and air resistance moving it to the left = F2 = 150 N
<u>To determine:</u>
The net force on the car
<u>Explanation:</u>
Force is a vector. The force of friction acts in a direction opposite to the applied force.
If, F1 = 300N, right, then F2 = -150 N, left
Therefore, the net force acting on the car will be:
F = F1+F2 = 300 - 150 = 150 N
<u>Ans</u>: Since the force acting on the right is greater, the car will experience a net force of 150 N which will accelerate it to the right
