Question

two forces are acting on a body (in a straight line)with magnitudes 10n and 8n in the same direction. calculate the net force acting on the body? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two forces that act in the same direction produce a resultant force that is larger than either individual force. You can easily calculate the resultant force of two forces that act in a straight line in the same direction by adding their sizes together.

if you apply the both the forces in same direction the net resultant forces will lead the body to accelerate ;lets say the body have mass *m*

so it will have and acceleration by the formula f=ma

net force=10+15=25

f=ma

25=ma

a=25/m

and if the net forces are on opposite direction then

f=15–10 (since the higher magnitude will produce the acceleration)

so f=5

5=ma

a=5/m

and if the both forces acts on the top part of the mass it will be balanced by the normal reaction force

15+10+mg=N (mg also acting downwards)

if one force is up and one is down so it will be

15–10+mg=N
