Question

If two forces of 20 N and 40 N act in the same direction,then the resultant force​

Answer 1

Answer:

the resultant force will be 60N in that direction

=20+40

=60N

Answer 2

Here we are given two forces, 20 N and 40 N.

The situation is such that both the forces act in the same direction.

We have to find the resultant force.

Now, we know that force is a vector quantity, so it can be vectorically resolved.

Now as the forces are in the same direction the forces will add up and therefore the resultant force will be the summation of both the forces

Resultant force = 20 + 40

                          = 60 N

The resultant force will be 60 N.
