A 30.0 kg object is falling in air and experiences a force due to air resistance of 50.0 N. What is the net force acting on the object?

A) -244 N
B) -110 N
C) 94 N

Answer :

The net force acting on the object will be 244 in downward direction

Forces acting on a freely falling body will be

1) Force due to gravity ( in downward direction ) or gravitational force

2) Force due to air resistance ( in upward direction )

Net force = Force due to gravity - Force due to air resistance

= - mg + Force due to air resistance

= - 30 * 9.8 + 50

= - 294 + 50 = -244 N

correct answer is

A) -244 N
