What do we use
to show the
magnitude and
direction of one
or multiple
forces acting in
an object?
How do we draw
a free-body
diagram ?
NET FORCE
• Differentiate balanced
and unbalanced force.
• Apply a free-body
diagram in solving net
force.
• Perform the process of
calculating net force.
Tell whether the
picture shows a
balanced or
unbalanced
force.

 How do you
know if the force
is BALANCED or
UNBALANCED?
 BALANCED FORCE UNBALANCED FORCE
occurs on the objects with
forces which are equal in acts on the object when there
magnitude but opposite in is an individual force that is
direction not being balanced by a force

Acceleration is zero. Object is accelerating.

Velocity is zero. Velocity changes.
Net force is zero. Net force changes.
How is net force
changing by
quantity?
NET FORCE (Fnet)
the vector sum of all the
forces acting on an object
𝑭 𝒏𝒆𝒕 =𝑭 𝟏 + 𝑭 𝟐 + 𝑭 𝟑 …
EXAMPLE
When the body is at rest, the net force formula is given by,
𝑭 𝒏𝒆𝒕 = 𝑭 𝑵 + 𝑭 𝒈
where FN is the applied force and Fg is the gravitational force
EXAMPLE
When a force is applied to the body, not only is the applied force Fa acting,
there are many other forces like gravitational force  Fg, frictional force Fg and
the normal force FN that balances the other force.
So, the net force formula is given by,
𝑭 𝒏𝒆𝒕 =𝑭 𝒂 +𝑭 𝒈+ 𝑭 𝒇 +𝑭 𝑵
EXAMPLE
In a tug of war, a fat man pulls with a force of 100 N on a side, and a lean man pulls
with 90 N on the other side. Determine the net force.
GIVEN:
Force F1 = 100 N
Force F2 = 90 N
FORMULA: 90 N 100 N
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝐹 1 + 𝐹 2
as direction of forces is opposing

SOLUTION:
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 =100 − 90¿ 10 𝑁
EXAMPLE
A toy car is at rest, and a force of 70 N is applied to it. If the frictional force is 20 N,
determine the net force.
GIVEN:
Applied Force Fa = 70 N
Frictional Force Ff = 20 N
FORMULA: 20 N 70 N
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝐹 𝑎 + 𝐹 𝑓
as direction of forces is opposing

SOLUTION:
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 =70 − 20¿ 50 𝑁
EXAMPLE
A cat with weight of 50 N falls toward the ground. What will be the net force
GIVEN:
Fg = 50 N

SOLUTION:
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝐹 𝑔
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 =− 𝐹 𝑔 50 N
𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 =− 50 𝑁
EXAMPLE
A 100-N is pulled by a rope with strength of 200 N at an angle of 30° across a surface
with a 5-N frictional force. The surface exerts an 80 N normal force.
GIVEN:
Fg = 100 N
FT = 200 N 200 N
80 N
Ff = 5 N
5N 30°
FN = 80 N
SOLUTION: 100 N
Take note that tension force has x and y
components.
When looking for x and y components, add the
other forces which are in their respective axis.
For the x-component of tension force FT(x)
friction force is on x-axis
friction force direction is opposing

𝑭 𝒙 =𝟏𝟔𝟖 𝑵 80 N

For the y-component of tension force FT(y) 100 N
as combined forces in y-axis
𝐹 𝑦 =( 200 𝑁 ) 𝑠𝑖𝑛30 ° +80 𝑁 − 100 𝑁
𝑭 𝒚 =𝟖𝟎 𝑵
Find the magnitude of the net force using
Pythagorean theorem

𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 = √ 𝐹 2

𝐹 𝑛𝑒𝑡 = √ (168 𝑁 )2+(8 0 𝑁 )2

The direction of the net force may be determined
using the tangent function 100 N
