Question

Two forces, of magnitude 4N and 10N, are applied to an object. The relative direction of the forces is unknown. The net force acting on the object:      (Check all that apply)

Question 5 options:

cannot have a magnitude equal to 5N

cannot have a magnitude equal to 10N

cannot have the same direction as the force with magnitude 10N

must have a magnitude greater than 10N

cannot have a magnitude equal to 5N

cannot have a magnitude equal to 10N

cannot have the same direction as the force with magnitude 10N

must have a magnitude greater than 10N

Explanation / Answer

When 4N force acts with 10N at any direction, it changes the net resultant from 10N to any greater value or smaller but it can't be 10 ever so option (b) is correct.
