Answer:

Net force = 5N

Explanation:

Jay = 20N to the right

Bradley = 15N to the left

To find the net force;

Since the forces are being applied to the box in opposite direction i.e acting in opposite direction, we would subtract them.

Net force = 20 - 15

Net force = 5N

Therefore, the net force on the box is 5 Newton.
