Answer:

The net force acting on the body, F = 11 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data,

The force acting on the body, f = 5 N

Another force acting on the body, f' = 6 N

The direction of both forces is in the same direction.

The net force is given by the resultant vector,


F= \sqrt{f^(2) + f'^(2) + 2 ff' Cos \theta}


F= \sqrt{f^(2) + f'^(2) + 2 ff' (∵ θ = 0)


F=\sqrt{(f + f')^(2) }

F = f + f'

= 5 N + 6 N

= 11 N

Hence, the net force acting on the body, F = 11 N
