Debra and Julie push on a table in the same direction. Debra pushes forward with a force of 200 N, and Julia pushes forward with a force of 150 N. What is the net force on the table.
A: 50 N backward
B: 350 N backward
C: 50 N forward
D: 350 N forward

Respuesta :

Answer;

D: 350 N forward

Explanation;

The Resultant force is defined as the total force acting on a body along with their directions. When the object is at rest or travelling with the same velocity, the resultant force has to be zero.

Force is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction.

Therefore, the resultant force will be the sum of the forces acting on the table;

Net Force = 200 N + 150 N (since they are acting in the same direction, forward)

                = 350 Newtons forward

Answer:

350 N forward
