Question

if two equal forces act in the opposite directions on a object, the net force acting on its is _______

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is zero

Explanation:

one side the force acting is positive and the other side it is negative. therefore the positive and negative get cancelled so the net force is zero

Answer 2

Answer:

0( zero)

Explanation:

It will be 0 because both forces are equal and acting in opposite direction so it will be balanced.

let F1 = N

but F1= F2 = N

we know that if forces are in opposite directions then we get net force by subtracting them.

hence,

F1-F2= N-N

=0
