Question
9 true or false 1 point there can be a force pushing outwards on the object as long as the net force in inwards true false previous
Net force is the vector sum of all forces acting on an object. If there is a force pushing outwards, but other forces (inwards) are stronger such that the net force is inwards, it is possible. For example, in circular motion (a type of motion where net force is inwards - centripetal force), there could be other forces (like a tension force in a string and a gravitational force on an object moving in a vertical circle at the bottom of the circle, where tension is upwards (outwards in some sense relative to the center of the circle) but net force (tension - weight) is still towards the center (inwards)).
