To find the resultant force subtract the magnitude of the smaller force from the magnitude of the larger force. The direction of the resultant force is in the same direction as the larger force. A force of 5 N acts to the right, and a force of 3 N act to the left. Calculate the resultant force.

Answer:

Two forces that act in opposite directions produce a resultant force that is smaller than either individual force. To find the resultant force subtract the magnitude of the smaller force from the magnitude of the larger force. The direction of the resultant force is in the same direction as the larger force.

If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?
vodomira [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

 Option A is the correct answer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

 First walking 1.2 km north,  displacement = 1.2 j km

 Secondly 1.6 km east, displacement = 1.6 i km

 Total displacement = (1.6 i + 1.2 j) km

 Magnitude = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2} = 2 km

 Angle of resultant with positive X - axis = tan^{-1}(1.2/1.6)=36.87^0 = 36.87⁰ east of north.
