A runner exerting a running force of 325 N to the right is met with an air resistance force of 45 N to the left. What is the net

force of the runner? (1 point)

280 N
370 N
325 N
45 N

1 answer

To find the net force, you need to subtract the air resistance force from the running force, since they act in opposite directions.

Net force = running force - air resistance force

Net force = 325 N - 45 N

Net force = 280 N

Therefore, the net force of the runner is 280 N.
