A baseball flies through the air.
A cell phone falls out of your hand.
A book sits on a table without moving.
You and your brother are using team work to move a heavy tv! You are pushing on the tv with 60 N of force and your brother is exerting 70 N of force with you on the same side. What is the net force and which statement would be true about the tv?
10 N; The tv would be pulled towards you and your brother.
130 N; The tv will be pushed away from you and your brother.
0 N; The tv will not move.
Using the picture, which team would win?
Blue Team
Green Team
