Forces and Free Body Diagrams Directions: Answer the questions based on your knowledge of forces and friction. For each example problem, calculate the net force on the object described in each situation. Draw a free body diagram for each and show the directions of forces as well as the total net force and direction of net force. Example: Mr. Collins lifts a heavy box over his head with one push of the arm and a force of 250 newtons. Gravity is pulling down the mass with 200 newtons. What is the net force and direction of the box? 1) What is a force? 2) What is meant by unbalanced forces, and what is the result? Draw an example: 3) What is meant by balanced forces, and what is the result? Draw an example: 4) A box is being pushed by two stellar science students, one on each side of the box. Peter is pushing the box with a force of 10 N to the left. Josh is pushing the box with a force of 15 N to the right. Who is the stronger individual and what is the net force and direction on the
