Question

In a horse cart each of the two horses pull with a force of 500N. find the resultant force and give reason.=

Answer 1

Given: In a horse cart each of the two horses pull with a force of 500 N.

To find: The resultant force?

Solution:

• Now we have given that there are two horses and both pulls with the force of 500 N.

• So, the resultant force will be:

           = 500 N + 500 N

           = 1000 N

• The reason behind it is:

• The force which is applied, is in the same direction. So the forces in same direction is always added to give the resultant force.

Answer:

             The resultant force is 1000 N.
