Answer: 4N downward
Explanation: If 16N is applied on both the right and left then the object isn't moving either way, so we are left with 4N.
The net force on the object is 4 N.
What is FORCE?
A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.
Given
force applied to the right on the object, Fr = 16 N
force applied to the left of the object, Fl = 16 N
force applied downward on the object,Fd = 4 N
The net horizontal force on the object = Fr-Fl = 16-16 = 0N
The net vertical force on the object = 4N downward
The net force on the object is calculated as;
[tex]F_{net}^{2} = 4^{2} +0\\F_{net}^{2} = 16\\F_{net} = \sqrt{16} \\F_{net} = 4N[/tex]
Therefore, the net force on the object is 4 N.
