Can a force acting perpendicular on a body cancal a force which is acting horizontally on the same body?

Yes, a force acting perpendicular to a horizontal force on a body can cancel out the horizontal force if the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. This is known as the equilibrium condition, where the net force acting on the body is zero.
