Two forces of $10 \,N$ and $6 \,N$ act upon a body. The direction of the forces are unknown. The resultant force on the body may be .........$N$

A

$15$

B

$3$

C

$17$

D

$2$

Solution

(a)

The resultant of two vectors always lie between $(A+B)$ and $(A-B)$. So the resultant of $10 \,N$ and $6 \,N$ should lie between $16 \,N$ and $4 \,N$.

So answer is $15 \,N$.
