Answer:

Net force = 15 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Applied force on an object = 20 N

Frictional force = 5 N

We need to find the net force acting on the object.

Friction is an opposing force. It acts in the opposite direction.

Net force = Applied force - Frictional force

= 20 N - 5 N

= 15 N

Hence, the net force acting on the object is 15 N.
