When an object is moved across a floor with a 95 N force, friction acts against the movement with a force of 15 N. What is the net force on the object?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the object is pushed across the floor, two forces act on it in opposite directions. The applied force is 95 N, and friction is 15 N, and the two have opposite signs.
Net force = Applied force + Friction force
Net force = 95 N + (-15 N)
Net force = 80 N
