What is net force? How do you calculate net force?

The net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object. That is to say, the net force is the sum of all the forces, taking into account the fact that a force is a vector and two forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction will cancel each other out. The magnitude of the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object as shown in the formula below. If the net force acting on an object is zero, then the object is not accelerating and is in a state that we call equilibrium. Jan 4, 2016
