The two forces will cancel each other out. For example, in a game of tug of war, if two equally strong people tug on the rope, they won't go anywhere, because each of the forces exerted on the rope is equal.

When two forces acting in the same direction are applied to a mass what is the combined force?

The combined force (net force) are the two forces added together.


What do you do if an object has two forces in the same direction?

In that case, you can add up the two forces, to get a combined force.


When two forces work in opposite directions you have what?

Then you have a combined force that is smaller in magnitude than the larger of the two forces.


What two things about forces are important when forces are combined?

The magnitude (size) AND the direction, of all the forces, all affect their combination.

Can Forces Be Combined?

As long as the forces are partially or entirely in the same direction, they can be partially or entirely combined.

When two force act in the same directino they are?

When two forces act in the same direction, they will combine to produce a resulting force equal to the sum of the individual forces. This combined force will act in the same direction as the individual forces.


What are two important things about forces when forces are combined?

When forces are combined, the resultant force is determined by both the magnitude and direction of the individual forces. The direction of the resultant force depends on the relative direction of the individual forces. The resultant force can be found using vector addition or the parallelogram of vectors method.


What causes the tide to happen?

The gravitational pull from both the moon and Sun, combined with the inertial forces created by the Earth's motion, create the tides.


When you combine forces in two opposite directions?

When forces are combined in two opposite directions, they create a net force that is the difference between the two forces. If one force is stronger, the net force will be in the direction of the stronger force. If the forces are equal, the net force will be zero, resulting in a state of equilibrium.
