Question
Mapoob Consider the forces on each of the astronauts in the table below. Answer the four questions about the astronauts and the forces they experience a) How much additional force should be applied to Virginia Virgo in order for the net force on her to be zero? b) What additional force should be applied in order for Foxy Vulpecula to experience a net force of zero?

RyaChoose the correct additional force that will cause d) Choose the correct additional force that will cause Previous Check Answer NextExit HintExplanation / Answer
(a) Net force on Virginia Virgo = 0 N
F1 +F2 + F = 0 where F is additional force
+3N + 0 + F = 0
F = -3 N i.e 3N down
(b) Net force on Foxy Vulpecula = 0 N
F1 +F2 + F = 0 where F is additional force
+15N + (-15N) + F = 0
F = 0 N
(c) Net force on O. Ryan= 0 N
F1 +F2 + F = 0 where F is additional force
+3N + (+4N) + F = 0
F = -7 N i.e 7N down
(d) Net force on Buny Lepus = 0 N
F1 +F2 + F = 0 where F is additional force
+5N + (-7N) + F = 0
F = +2 N i.e 2N right
