Question

What is the resultant force when two forces act in same direction?​

Answer 1

Resultant Force :- When two or more force act on a body then resulatnts force is the sum of all forces act on a body is known as resultant force .

Case 1.

When two forces act in same directions then the resultant force is added .

Rf = F1 + F2

Case2.

When two forces act in opposite direction then the resultant is equla to difference of the force of higher magnitude.

Rf = F2 - F1

Where , F2 > F1.

Answer 2

Answer:

When two forces acts in the same direction then the resultant force is the sum of the two forces acting in the same direction

i.e Rf=F1+F2

Where, Rf= resultant force

F1=First force working on the body.

F2=Second force working on the body.

So the resultant force is the sum of all the forces .

⭐Ex:-Let two forces are acting on an object in same direction where F1=4N and F2=7N.

Then the resultant force is F1 + F2 => 4 + 7 = 11N.
