The resultant of the two forces of 5N each acting on a body in opposite direction is zero because if the first force F1 is directed at zero degrees, the second force F2 is directed at 180 degrees. The cosine of zero degrees F1 is 1.0000 and the cosine of 180 degrees F2 is -1.0000. Adding 1.0000 and -1.0000 results to zero.
If F1 = 5N acting at 60 degrees and F2 = 5N acting at 240 degrees will have a resultant of zero because the cosine of 60 degrees is 0.5000 and the cosine of 240 degrees is -0.5000. Adding 0.5000 and -0.5000 gives a sum of zero. The angles 60 degrees and 240 degrees are opposite each other in the unit circle.
Answer:
The answer to this question is 2N.
Explanation:
When two forces act in opposite directions, they reduce each other's effect and the net force is equal to the difference between the two forces.
