Question

If a force of 2N is applied on a box towards north and a force of 3N in south. In which direction the box will move?

Answer 1

Force 1 = 2N towards north

Force 2 = 3N towards south

The north and south directions are opposite to each other and thus, make an angle of 180°

So,

Resultant force = 2N - 3N = -1N

So, the box will move towards south cause it is larger than the other force.

Cheers!
