### Required Information

In the below Free Body Diagram (FBD), the forces are labeled with their magnitudes.

---

#### Free Body Diagram (FBD)

![Free Body Diagram of forces labeled with magnitudes](#)

The FBD represents a point where four forces are acting:

- **Force A (AN)**: Acting upward with a magnitude of 17.4 N.
- **Force C (CN)**: Acting downward with a magnitude of 17.4 N.
- **Force B (BN)**: Acting to the right with a magnitude of 13.5 N.
- **Force D (DN)**: Acting to the left with a magnitude of 13.5 N.

The equation representing these magnitudes is:

\[ 
A = C = 17.4 \, \text{N} \quad \text{and} \quad B = D = 13.5 \, \text{N} 
\]

#### Net Force Calculation

To determine the net force, we sum the forces in both the vertical and horizontal directions.

**Vertical Direction Forces:**
\[ 
\sum F_y = A - C = 17.4 \, \text{N} - 17.4 \, \text{N} = 0 \, \text{N}
\]

**Horizontal Direction Forces:**
\[ 
\sum F_x = B - D = 13.5 \, \text{N} - 13.5 \, \text{N} = 0 \, \text{N}
\]

**Net Force:**
Since both vertical and horizontal components of the net force are zero:

\[ 
\text{Net Force} = 0 \, \text{N} 
\]

**Fill in the Blank:**
\[ 
0 \, \text{N}
\]

The net force acting on the point is **0 N**.
