1.Phoebe Physics pulls a wagon with a force of 80 N. a) What is the net force if the force of friction between the wagon and the ground is 12 N? b) If she uses 80 N to pull the wagon through a mud puddle, and the net force on the wagon is 38 N, what friction force acts on the wagon?

2.A rocket weighs 2.0 x 107 N. Its engines exert 2.5 x 107 N of force at lift-off. What is the net force applied to the rocket?

3.Two children having a disagreement pull on a sled in opposite directions. One pulls with a force of 200 N east, the other with a force of 175 N west. A friction force of 10 N exists between the sled and the surface. Determine the net force on the sled.

4. A heavy wagon is pulled along the sidewalk by a force of 12 N, with a 10 N force opposing the motion. The force of gravity on the wagon is 20 N. a) Draw a f.b. diagram showing all the forces acting on the wagon. b) Determine the net force on the wagon.
