Assuming the forces are acting on the same object, as the angle between them increases from 0 (acting in the same direction) to 180 (acting in opposite directions) the total force acting on the object starts at a maximum and decreses to a minimum at 180 degrees.

What would happen to an object when normal force and force of gravity is applied?

It depends on the magnitude of the forces.


Do balanced forces of unequal strengths cancel out each other?

If the forces are balanced, that means they cancel out one another - their vector sum is zero. This can't happen with two forces of unequal magnitude (strength), but it is possible to have three or more forces of unequal magnitude cancel one another; for example (in a one-dimensional example), forces of 3, -2, and -1.

What happen to the force of gravity when you get further from the earth?

As you get further away from Earth, the gravitational forces between you and Earth decrease. But the gravitational forces between you and something else might increase, like between you and the moon, or between you and the sun.


Can the magnitude of a vector be less than magnitudes both of components?

The magnitude of the sum of any two vectors can be anywhere between zero and the sum of their two magnitudes, depending on their magnitudes and the angle between them. When you say "components", you're simply describing a sum of two vectors that happen to be perpendicular to each other. In that case, the magnitude of their sum is Square root of [ (magnitude of one component)2 + (magnitude of the other component)2 ] It looks to me like that can't be less than the the magnitude of the greater component.

What are forces equal in strength but opposite in direction?

It happens when 1 force is having larger magnituge and the other is less in magnitude ........ and then the forces does not balance each other Take the example of weight and tension of a body connected by string . weight and tension are always opposite in the direction if the weight is suppose 12 newton and tension is 10 newton , then same thing will happen , they can't balance each other ...... as the strength of weight is more than tension
