Answer:

Net force acting upon an object = magnitude of greater force - magnitude of lesser force. And the direction of Greater force.

Explanation:

Therefore,

Greater force = 16N

Lesser force = 4N

*The magnitude of the force is 16N-4N=12N*

The direction as reffered in the question is at right angle both the forces are acting.

So, If the force is acting through different directions then the direction of net force will be th bisector of the initial force. And, will at opposite of the segment. Please check the above pic.
