If two forces 20 N towards North and 12 N towards South are acting on an object. What will be the resultant force?
A
32 N North
B
20 N South
C
32 N South
D
8 N North
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus resultant force will act towards north with magnitude 8N.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: The resultant force acting on the body is 8N towards the North.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is the sum of the forces acting on a particular body, suppose if Raj applied 20N and Sam applied 20N, then the resultant force will be 20N + 20N, that is 40 N.

Detailed explanation-4: -So the resultant force will be equal to 20N-10N = 10N.
