Mark
< Prev
Next >

Two collinear forces, F₁ and F₂, act on an object. The force F₁ is 15 N directed to the right, and the force F₂ is 23 N directed to the left. The resulting net force is 8 N to the left. Assuming the direction to the right is defined as positive, which equation correctly represents the vector sum of the forces?

A

F₁ + F₂ = -8 N

B

F₁ - F₂ = -8 N

C

F₁ + F₂ = +8 N

D

|F₁| + |F₂| = 8 N
