Resultant force
if forces are acting along the same line add them end to end
Example...
What's the resultant force of a 220N force north, a 180N force south and a 90N force south?
Step 1- North can be -, South can be +
Step 2- add them end to end...
180+90-220=50N
The resultant force is 50N in the South direction
Test...
A kite in the air has 4N upwards, 3N downwards, 2N to the left and 3.5N to the right...
a) calculate the resultant upward force, in newtons, on the kite
upwards can be +, downwards can be -
4-3= 1N upwards
b) calculate the resultant sideways force, in newtons, on the kite and state its direction
left can be -, right can be +
3.5-2= 1.5N to the left
