They add together. *Note: when dealing with vector forces, adding them together could result in larger, smaller or even negative numbers, based upon the signs' of the original numbers
No, they can NEVER act in the same directions.
The two forces are of the same magnitude, act in opposite directions, and act on different objects.
When two forces act in opposite directions with the same magnitude, they will cancel each other out. This results in a net force of zero, causing the object to remain stationary or continue moving at a constant velocity.
vector sum of the two forces.
Pay attention and study

Forces are subtracted when they act in opposite directions along the same axis. The net force in this case is the difference between the magnitudes of the forces.
No. When two forces act in the same direction, they can be added together. It is only when two identical forces act in opposite directions that they cancel each other out.
When the direction of forces is collinear, it means that the forces are acting along the same line of action. This implies that the forces have the same or opposite directions, but are in a straight line. When forces are collinear, their effects can be combined or canceled out depending on their magnitudes and directions.
When two forces act in opposite directions on an object, they create a net force that is the difference between the two forces. The object will accelerate in the direction of the greater force. If the two forces are equal in magnitude, the object will remain stationary or continue moving at a constant velocity.
Compression: forces that act towards each other along the same line. Tension: forces that act away from each other along the same line. Shear: forces that act parallel to each other, but in opposite directions.
In order to cancel out, they must act on the same object.
