Question

If a 3N and 15N forces are acting opposite to one another. Find the resultant force and the direction of action of the resultant force.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sonce the forces are acting in opposite directions, the resultant net force is (15N-3N)=12 N.

The direction of the action of the force is towards 15 N.

Answer 2

Question:-

If a 3N and 15N forces are acting opposite to one another. Find the resultant force and the direction of action of the resultant force.

Answer:-

Resultant force = 12N

Solution:-

Let us assume that

• $\sf \: F_{1} = 3N$
• $\sf \: F_{2} = 15N$

Then,

${\green{\overline{\green{\underline{\blue{\boxed{\orange{\mathtt{(Resultant \: \: force (R) = F_{2} - F_{1})}}}}}}}}}$

$\sf \: R= F_{2} - F_{1}$

$\sf \implies15N - 3N$

$\sf \implies 12N$

$\boxed{ \red{ \bf \: Hence, \: \: Resultant \: \: force = 12N}}$

And it will act in the direction of greater force i.e.$\sf \: F_{2}$
