Resultant forces
-
How do you calculate the size of a resultant force when two (or more) forces act along the same line?
If the forces act in the same direction we add the forces to work out the size of the resultant force. If theforces act in opposite directions then we take the smallest one away from the biggest to work out the size of the resultant force.
