Define "resultant force".

A box is pushed to the right with a force of 30 N and to the left with a force of 10 N. Calculate the magnitude and state the direction of the resultant force.

If the resultant force on an object is zero, what can you say about its state of motion? (Give two possibilities).

Two forces of 8 N and 12 N act on a point in the same direction. What is the resultant force?

What is meant by "balanced forces"?

A car is travelling at a constant velocity of 20 m/s. What is the resultant force acting on the car?

An object is pulled East with 50 N of force and West with 50 N of force. What is the resultant force?

A book of weight 5 N rests on a table. The table pushes up on the book with a force of 5 N. What is the resultant force on the book?

Two parallel forces, 15 N and 25 N, act downwards on a beam. What is the total downward force?

A boat is pushed forward by its engine with a force of 500 N. The water resistance pushes back with a force of 100 N. What is the net force on the boat?

If an object is accelerating, are the forces acting on it balanced or unbalanced?

If three people push a stalled car forward, each with a force of 200 N, what is the total force they apply?

An elevator is being pulled upwards by a cable with a force of 2000 N. The weight of the elevator is 1500 N. What is the resultant force?

How is the resultant force related to an object's acceleration?

If two forces act in opposite directions, how do you determine the direction of the resultant force?
