A hovercraft is being driven across a lake on a very windy day. The wind exerts a force of 5000 N north on the hovercraft. The propellers driving the hovercraft also exert a force. What is the net force (to 3.s.f ) on the hovercraft when the force applied to the hovercraft by the propellers is: 10 000 N west
