Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question about the resultant force acting on a body when two forces of unequal magnitudes act on it in opposite directions, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Forces**: - Let's denote the two forces as \( F_1 \) and \( F_2 \). - Assume \( F_1 \) is greater than \( F_2 \) (i.e., \( F_1 > F_2 \)). - These forces act in opposite directions. ...
