How do you calculate net force in the x direction physics when no x value is given and there are push and pull forces in the x direction?

You add all the forces. Not quite sure what you mean with "no x value is given", but if you don't know ANYTHING about the forces, then you can't calculate the net force either.

Two forces are exerted on an object A 39 N force acts at 220degrees and a 55 N force acts at 315degrees What are the magnitude and direction of the equilibrant?
you fail in grade 11 physics
What is a vertical force?
The forces acting in a vertical direction or in a straight direction is called vertical force
Why can vectors be used to represent forces?
A vector is a quantity with magnitude and direction. Since force has magnitude and direction, it is a vector
What are two possible uses for physics equations?
Using information about a force to calculate the resulting acceleration..Using the change in the volume of a gas to calculate the change in its pressure.
What is retardation in physics?
Retardation is the application of a force that produces negative accelleration. Synonyms would be braking, decelleration, damping, etc. Gravitational force operates downward (in a negative direction) so, in most frames of reference, gravity is a retarding force.
What is th calculate net force for forces in the same direction?
If two or more forces act on the same object, and in the same direction, you can calculate the net force by simply adding them.
How do you calculate the net force when forces are in the opposite direction?
You subtract the smaller force from the larger one.
Why are forces consider vectors?
In physics, a "vector" is usually a measurement that has both a magnitude, and a direction - especially when the direction is relevant. A force has a direction, and the direction is relevant.
When two forces are acting in the opposite direction how do you calculate the net force?
gravity
When two or more forces are acting on an object in the same direction how do you calculate the net force?
You find the vector sum of all the forces. That is the resultant, or net, force.
Can you calculate net force when forces act in the same direction In opposite directions?

How can you Calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant force of an object which is acted on by a force of 4.0N and a force of 10N that are in the same direction?
Add the resultant vectors 4 + 10 (and as they are in the same direction there will be no sine or cosine factors to worry about).Answer: 14N in the direction of the forces
How do you calculate the net force when two people are pushing in the same direction?
You just add the forces in this case.
Can anybody define interaction pair?
"A force pair composed of two forces that are opposite in direction and equal in magnitude." - Glencoe Physics
If the net force On an an object is zero what do you know about all of the forces acting on the object?
Net force is a combination of all the foces acting on an object.If two forces are acting in the same direction you add the forces to calculate the net force
How do you calculate the net force if two or more forces act in the same direction.?
In that case you simply add the magnitudes.
What is the direction of the forces is the?
Is the direction where you exerted your force.
