Question

what is the net force? 3 n left 17 n left 3 n right 17 n right

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the direction of forces

The left - acting force is \(7N\) and the right - acting force is \(10N\).

Step2: Calculate the net force

Since the forces are in opposite directions, we subtract the smaller force from the larger one. Net force \(F = 10N-7N = 3N\). The direction of the net force is the same as the direction of the larger force (right).

Answer:

C. \(3N\) Right
