To determine the plane's net force, you need to add the two forces together. In this case, the plane's speed of 70 kilometers per hour and the tailwind speed of 5 kilometers per hour are acting in the same direction, so the net force can be calculated by adding them together. Therefore, the correct answer is:
Add the two forces together.
A plane is flying at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour. Then a tailwind (moving in the same direction as the plane) of 5 kilometers per hour acts on the plane. How is the plane’s net force calculated?(1 point) Responses Divide the larger force by the smaller force Divide the larger force by the smaller force Add the two forces together Add the two forces together Subtract the smaller force from the greater one Subtract the smaller force from the greater one Multiply the two forces
