If forces acting on a piece of wooden block are 40N and 60N respectively in the direction of North and at the same time this wooden block is pushed in the direction of South by 90 N and 15N. Calculate the resultant force acting on this object and it will move in which direction? guys pls answer this no silly answers if u dont know then dont answer I will mark as brainliest

Answer:
Resultant force is nothing but the total force acting on a body including their directions. If the object is at rest or it moves with a same velocity, the resultant force should be zero. All forces are acting on same direction, resultant force should be the sum of all the forces.
In this case, two boys exert forces of 40N and 60N in opposite directions on an object. This means that one force goes with a plus sign and the other force goes with the minus sign.
That is, F

=60N−40N=20N.
Hence, a force of 20 N acts in the direction of greater force.Resultant force is nothing but the total force acting on a body including their directions.
