what is the net force?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate net force in vertical direction

Vertical forces: (4000\ N) (up) and (4000\ N) (down). Net vertical force (F_{v}=4000 - 4000=0\ N)

Step2: Calculate net force in horizontal direction

Horizontal forces: (1354\ N) (left) and (2356\ N) (right). Net horizontal force (F_{h}=2356 - 1354 = 1002\ N) (right)

Answer:

The net force is (1002\ N) to the right.
