The gray shaded dot represents a bucket you are lifting up. You apply a force of 25 N and the weight of the bucket is -10 N. Which vector is -10 N? Click in the correct dot.
Answer explanation
Gravity always pulls down on masses and that force is their weight. Fg
I label down forces as negative in these problems.

The gray shaded dot represents a bucket you are lifting up. You apply a force of 25 N and the weight of the bucket is -10 N. Which dot is by the correct net force on the bucket? Click in the correct dot.
Answer explanation
To find net force, you add the up and down forces together.
Net force = 25 N + - 10 N = 25 N - 10 N = 15 N

DRAG AND DROP QUESTION
2 mins • 1 pt
You lift a 2-kg bucket with a force of 40.4 N. The weight of the bucket is -19.6 N.
m (bucket) = (a) Fg (bucket) = (b) Force applied on bucket = (c)
Answer explanation
The force up is 40.4 and the force down is
-19.6 N.
Add these to get the net force.
40.4 + - 19.6 N = 40.4 - 19.6 = 20.8 N
To get net force, always add up to down and left to right.

You lift a 3-kg bucket with a force of 50 N. The weight of the bucket is -29.4 N.
m (bucket) = (a) Fg (bucket) = (b) Force applied on bucket = (c)
Answer explanation
The force up is 40.4 and the force down is
-19.6 N.
Add these to get the net force.
40.4 + - 19.6 N = 40.4 - 19.6 = 20.8 N
To get net force, always add up to down and left to right.
