From the question given above, we were told that 10 N force and 18 N force act in the same direction on the object.
The net force acting on the object can be obtained by simply adding both forces together since they both act on the object in the same direction. This is illustrated below:
Force 1 (F₁) = 10 N
Force 2 (F₂) = 18 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Fₙ = F₁ + F₂ (since they both act in the same direction)
Fₙ = 10 + 18
Fₙ = 28 N
Therefore, the net force acting on the object is 28 N.
