If Gregory pushes a box to the right with a force of 5 newtons and Janine pushes the same box to the left with a force of 7 newtons which direction will the box go and what will its net force be?
The box will move to the left, as Janine's force of 7 newtons is greater than Gregory's force of 5 newtons.
The net force on the box will be 7 newtons to the left (7 N - 5 N = 2 N).
