Question

The vector sum of the forces of 10N and 6N can be(a) 2N(b) 8N(c) 18N (d) 20N

Answer 1

Answer:

8N 18N 20N

Explanation:

max =10+6=16

min=10-6=4

Answer 2

Answer:

all the net forces between maximum and minimum not force can be correct options. Here maximum can be their addition that is 16 and minimum can be their subtraction that is 4. you may wonder that what and how can their be many values in between these two values. so the answer is that force may apply in multiple directions making various angles with each other. you can stick to this logic until it is given that at what position the forces are applied that is in same or opposite direction or making some angle with each other.
