Kolten Clayton · Answer 1

the net force would be equal do to the fact that if they are both pushing with the same amount of force on each side

Howard Fowler · Answer 2

Answer : Balanced force, Net force = 0

Explanation:

In balanced force, two equal and opposite forces are applied in order to make net force on the object equals zero.

In this case, Gustavo and Beatriz are pushing on a door in opposite directions. As a result, the door does not move at all. This shows that the forces acting on the door are balanced.

Hence, the forces are balanced and the net force is zero.
