The magnitude and direction of the net force is 9 newtons to the right ⇒ answer A
Explanation:
The net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object
If two forces are horizontal where,
- [tex]F_{1}[/tex] > [tex]F_{2}[/tex]
- They are in opposite direction
- Net force F = [tex]F_{1}[/tex] - [tex]F_{2}[/tex] in the direction of [tex]F_{1}[/tex]
An object is acted upon by a force of 22 newtons to the right
and a force of 13 newtons to the left
We need to find the magnitude and direction of the net force
→ [tex]F_{1}[/tex] = 22 newtons to the right
→ [tex]F_{2}[/tex] = 13 newtons to the left
[tex]F_{1}[/tex] > [tex]F_{2}[/tex] and they are in opposite direction
Substitute these values in the rule of the net force above
→ Net force F = 22 - 13 = 9
→ The direction of the net force is the same direction of the larger
  force, the direction of the larger force is to the right
→ Net force is 9 newtons to the right
The magnitude and direction of the net force is 9 newtons to the right
