An object has a force of 10 newtons from the right and 17 newtons from the left. once the object starts moving toward the right, an additional force of 7 newtons is applied from the right. what can you conclude about the direction of motion of the object after the application of the additional force?

Answer;

The object will not move in either left or right direction, because the net force will be Zero.

Explanation;Initially, the object experienced an unbalanced forces, 10 N from the right and 17 N from the left, which resulted to a net force of 7 Netwons, and thus the object moved towards the right.Addition of a force of 7 Newtons from the right, resulted to balanced forces from both direction, thus the object stopped moving in either direction as the net force became zero.An unbalanced force acting on an object makes the object to move, change direction or its speed.  Balanced forces creates a zero net force making the object to have zero acceleration or stop motion.
