Question

Two equal forces of 5N each act on an object in opposite direction. What is the net force acting on the object?

Answer 1

Answer :-

• $\sf F_a=5N$
• $\sf F_b=5N$
• As two forces acting on the opposite direction the net force will be their difference

$\boxed{\sf F_{net}=F_a+F_b}$

$\\ \tt\longmapsto F_{net}=5N-(5N)$

$\\ \tt\longmapsto F_{net}=5N-5N$

$\\ \tt\longmapsto F_{net}=0N$
