Andy pushes a backpack toward the right with a force of 6 N, while Paul pulls on it toward the left with a force of 4 N. What is the total force the backpack feels?

Answer:

2 N

Explanation:

Neglecting friction, air resistance, and gravitational pull, the force on the backpack feels like 2 Newtons. This is because we have a +6N force towards the right and -4N towards the left (left means negative and right means positive).

Summing them up, we get 2N. Now the total force differs if there are external forces acting on the backpack.
Answer: 2 N to the right

Explanation:
You subtract the opposing distances. So
you subtract 6N from 4N.
