Physics how to calculate net force and direction in physics? Asked by bookragstutor 13 years ago 8/20/2012 9:51 AM Last updated by anonymous 13 years ago 12/21/2012 4:59 PM
The net force calculation will depend on the direction in which the force is applied. If they are all going in the same direction you can add the forces together, if they are going in opposite directions then you would subtract.
