Question

If you have 2 forces (10 N) and 15 (N) pushing an object the same direction in a one dimensional force vectors what is the resulting force?

Answer 1

wouldnt it be 25 because if voth forces are going in the same direction it would be adding so there for it is 25 N.

Answer 2

Force being a vector quantity, they obeys additive properties. Since both forces are parallel to each other(acting in same direction), net force will be addition of 2 forces equal to 25N.
