The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object....So that is...(20+10=30)N acting in the same direction.........

What is the only force acting on a freely falling object?

Gravity is forcing an object to fall to the ground. Another force is friction from air pressure on the falling object.


What is the net force acting on a 25 newton freely fallling object?

Net force=ma=25N


What is exactly meant by a freely of falling object?

If an object is in "free fall", it means that the only force acting on it is gravity.


What is constant for freely falling body?

Acceleration. A free-falling object falls at constant force, and thereby at constant acceleration.


What is the net force that acts on a 10- freely falling object?

Ten newtons downward, by definition.


In what way is the motion of a freely falling object different from the motion of the cart?

motion of free falling object does not have friction, while motion of the cart has force of friction


How does newton 1st law apply to a falling object?

It doesn't, since the conditions don't apply. The conditions for Newton's First Law are that there is no net force on an object - there must be no force on the object, or the vector sum of the forces must be zero.


Do a freely falling body produce reaction to action by gravitational force?

It sure does! Look up Newton's law of universal gravitation. Basically it states that each object exerts the exact same amount of force upon the other. For example, your weight on Earth is exactly the same as Earth's weight on you. And if you are freely falling toward the Earth, then the Earth is freely falling toward you. You don't notice it, because the accelerations are inversely proportional to the masses, and the Earth has quite a bit more of that than you have.


When a body is falling freely which force act on it?

no force act on it


How is gravity different for objects that freely fall down and those thrown upwards?

The gravity acting on a rising object and that on a falling object are the same when these objects are at the same height. What is different is that a rising object is decelerating by the force of gravity and the falling object is accelerating.


How does force and gravity effect a falling object?

Gravity is a force that accelerates the falling object towards the ground.


Is there any force acting on an object which is falling freely?

Yes. The definition of "free fall" implies that gravity from Earth - or perhaps from different objects - is acting on the body.
