a vector of 5 n north meets a vector of 15 n south what is the resulting force?

Answer 1

10N south...

the forces being directly opposite will directly cancel out

Answer 2

When a vector(A) of 5 N North meets a vector(B) of 15 N South, the resultant (R) will be as follows:

A = 5 N north, B= 15 N south
R = (15 - 5) N = 10 N south (as this is greater)

Answer 3

Since the forces are in opposite directions you would simply add algebraically using signed numbers. Call north positive and south negative. You would then add as follows: (+5n) + (-15n) =( -10n) or ten newtons in a southward direction. BTW you would work the problem in the same way if the forces were in the same direction only in that case both vectors would have the same sign and the resultant would have the sign common to the two (or more) vectors.

Answer 4

Itz 10N towards South

Answer 5

once again u r waiting 4 my answr
i.e 10N south

plz choose as best answer

Answer 6

10n toward south as vectors are in opposite direction we will subtract them and direction will be of vector with bigger magnitude

Answer 7

10 N SOUTH

Answer 8

The resultant force will be acting at a force of 10N southwards
