A plane is flying at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour. Then a tailwind (moving in the same direction as the plane) of 5 kilometers per hour acts on the plane. How is the plane’s net force calculated?(1 point)

Answer 5

To calculate the net force on the plane, you need to add the two forces together. The force of the plane moving at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour is one force, and the tailwind of 5 kilometers per hour is the second force. Adding these two forces together will give you the net force acting on the plane. Therefore, the correct answer is to add the two forces together.
