Question

what is the net force on the object below? 95 n → □ ← -111 n 16 n left 206 n left 206 n right 16 n right

Explanation:

Step1: Define forces direction

Let right be positive, left be negative. So \( F_1 = 95\,\text{N} \) (right), \( F_2=- 111\,\text{N} \) (left).

Step2: Calculate net force

Net force \( F_{\text{net}}=F_1 + F_2=95+( - 111)=95 - 111=- 16\,\text{N} \). Negative sign means direction is left, magnitude \( 16\,\text{N} \).

Answer:

16 N Left
