Braden pushes on a box to the right with a force of 50 N, and Anthony pushes on the box to the left with a force of 60 N.
a. Draw a picture showing the forces.
b. What is the net force on the box?
c. What will happen to the box?
b. Fnet=10N Left
c. Box will move left.

Arielle is driving East and pushes down on the gas pedal in her car and causes the engine to give a force of 1000 N to the tires on the car. Air and ground resistance push back on the car to the West with a force of 850 N.
a. Draw a picture showing the forces.
b. What is the net force on the car?
c. The Car will speed up to the East.
b. 150N to the East
c. What will happen to the car?

A box is sliding down an icy hill at a constant speed.
a. Draw a picture showing the forces.
b. What is the net force on the box?
c. What will happen to the box?
b. 0 N
c. The motion of the box will not change.

For the box in question 3, Mark pushes against the box up hill with 40 N of force.
a. Draw a picture showing the forces.
b. What is the net force on the box?
c. What will happen to the box?
b. 40N up the hill
c. The motion of the box will continue down the hill, however the force being applied by Mark will slow down the box.

If Mark continues pushing this way for a longer time, what will happen to the box?
The box will start going up the hill.
