### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Resultant Force**: - The resultant force is defined as the sum of all forces acting on a body. This means that if multiple forces are applied to an object, the resultant force is what you get when you combine all these forces into a single force. 2. **Understanding Forces as Vectors**: - Forces are vector quantities, which means they have both magnitude (size) and direction. When calculating the resultant force, it is important to consider both these aspects. ...
