A boat moves forward through water with a force of 5,100 newtons (N). The water resists with forces equaling 4,800 N. What is the net force acting on the boat?

Respuesta :

Answer:

300 newton

Explanation:

This boat is pushing forward with a force of 5100 newton

The resistive force of water is = 4800N

This question tells us to calculate the net force.

Net force is equal to

Forward force - resistive force

= 5100 newton - 4800newton

= 300 newton

Therefore we conclude that the net force that is acting on the boat is 300N

Answer:

300 N

Explanation:

Basically I’m not that smart so I just subtracted 4,800 N from 5,100 N
