c. Two persons A and B are pushing a block from opposite sides with
force of 5N and 6N respectively.
[3]
i) Find the magnitude of the resultant force on the block.
ii) Find the direction of resultant force with respect to A and B.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1 N

Explanation:

1) You'll just have to sum the force vectors, and since they are opposite, you'll calculate the difference of their magnitudes, in absolute value.

Ftot = |F1 - F2| = 6N - 5N = 1N

2)The direction will be the same as the greater force's direction.
