Question

This is about net force

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) $Net\ Force = 2N$ towards the right

(b) The green team wins

Explanation:

Given

$Blue = 40N$

$Green = 42N$

Solving (a): The net force

Because the force in the opposite directions, the net force is the subtraction of the smaller force from the bigger one.

So, we have:

$Net\ Force = Green - Blue$

Substitute values for Blue and Green

$Net\ Force = 42N- 40N$

$Net\ Force = 2N$

Solving (b): Who wins the round

The body will move toward the Green Team because the force larger $(42N > 40N)$

So, the green team will win
