Since North and South are opposing directions, the net force will be 10 N north.
One way to look at it is to define North as a positive direction. In that case, South would be negative and the net force would be 15 N - 5 N = 10 N (which, since we defined North as positive, means that the force must be directed North since the net force is positive).
If the 10N force is positive, meaning to the north, then the 5N south would be negative, and the net force is 10N + (-5N) = 5N to the north.
2N north
Take north to be the positive direction, and south to be the negative direction. Net force = 13N + (-17N) = -4N Net force = 4N to the south.
2 Newtons to the North 7-5=2 Simple math =)
7 N North is up and 5 N South is down; 7 -5 = 2 N North
The net force on the object is 5 newtons toward the north.
If the 10N force is positive, meaning to the north, then the 5N south would be negative, and the net force is 10N + (-5N) = 5N to the north.
Just tell me or im going to cry.. :'(
2N north
Take north to be the positive direction, and south to be the negative direction. Net force = 13N + (-17N) = -4N Net force = 4N to the south.
As they are acting directly against each other, we can simply subtract.The resultant is 15 N to the north.
2 Newtons to the North 7-5=2 Simple math =)
7 N North is up and 5 N South is down; 7 -5 = 2 N North
It is very simple. Since force is a vector quantity we have to add them vectorially. So as two are in opposite directions we get 7-5 = 2 N As Northern force dominates over that in the southern, the resultant 2 N will also be in northern direction.
We are assuming that the forces are opposite of each other, meaning that they will cancel out. Net force is simply 39-22 (or 17 newtons).

magnets repel magnets. a north repels north, south repels south and north attracts south poles
