Q:Q: What is the net force when two forces act in the same direction? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Two forces may act on an object in the same direction. You can see an example of this in Figure below . After the man on the left lifts up the couch, he will push the couch to the right with a force of 25 newtons. At the same time, the man to the right is pulling the couch to the right with a force of 20 newtons. When two forces act in the same direction, the net force is equal to the sum of the forces. This always results in a stronger force than either of the individual forces alone. In this case, the net force on the couch is 45 newtons to the right, so the couch will move to the right. Choices: - number of the forces - arguing forces - group of forces - sum of the forces A:
A:
sum of the forces
