Question

A force of 10N toworde the east and an unknown force F dalance each other. Find the unknown force

Answer 1

Answer:

10N  towards west.....(if no friction acts..!!)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer :-

◾Well it is given that there is a force of 10 N which is working in the direction of East , is balanced by a force " F " .

◾To find out the force we must know that what do we meen by balancing of force ?

• Balancing of force → If the sum of total force working on a body is zero then it is said that the force is balanced on that body.

** Note → While solving this problem we will take the minimum value of required to balance the force , which means that the force "F" will be opposite the direction of the force working previously.

▪️So the sum total of force = 0

$\implies\sf{ 10 \: N + F = 0 }$

$\implies \sf{ F = -10 \: N}$

▪️So the force "F" = -10 N in the direction of East

Or

➡️Force "F" = 10 N in the direction of West.
