Given:
10 units of force in a direction
5 units of force applied in a direction opposite to the previous 10 units of force
Asked: What will be the net force on the object?
Solution:
Greater amount of force - lesser amount of force = net force with direction
10 units - 5 units = 5 units of force in the direction of the greater force
Warning: ( if you will only answer 5 units of force, it is considered wrong, there should always be a direction, if it is to the left or south, it has a negative sign, otherwise, positive sign)
Answer:
5 units of force in the direction of the greater force
