Question

If a 5n and 15n force are acting opposite to one another.Find the resultant force and the direction of action of the resultant force

Answer 1

Answer:

resultant force us 15-5= 10 N direction is along big force (15N)

Answer 2

Answer:

10 newton

Explanation:

let the 1st force=5n

the 2nd force= 15n

since they are acting opposite,

5n-15n=-10newtons

direction with magnitude:10 newtons towards 2nd force
