wo forces act on an object. One force has a magnitude of 30N directed west, and the other force has a magnitude of 12 N directed east. What is the net force on the object?(1 point) Responses 18N west 18N west 42 N east 42N east 42N west 42N west 18N east 18N east
To find the net force on the object, we need to subtract the force directed east from the force directed west.
Net force = (30 N west) - (12 N east)
Since these forces are in opposite directions, we need to subtract them.
Net force = 30 N - 12 N = 18 N west
So, the net force on the object is 18 N west.
