A sled is being pulled to the left by 5 dogs, each dog pulling with 6 Newtons of force find the net force

Since the five forces applied are all in the same direction with the motion of the sled, to solve for the net force,  add the five forces together.


`sum F = F_1 + F_2 + F_3 + F_4 +F_5`


`sum F = 6N + 6N + 6N + 6N + 6N`


`sum F = 30 N`


Therefore, the net force is 30 Newtons.
