The net force on the object can be found by subtracting the magnitude of the eastward force from the magnitude of the westward force:
30N - 12N = 18N
The net force on the object is 18N westward. So the correct response is 18N west.
Two forces act on an object. One force has a magnitude of 30N directed west, and the other force has a magnitude of 12 N directed east. What is the net force on the object?(1 point) Responses 42N west 42N west 18N east 18N east 18N west 18N west 42 N east
