i need help in this question plzzz
forces of 12 N and 5N act on same point but their direction can be varied.
what is their
a) greatest possible resultant
b)least possible resultant
(i know about greatest but not how to do part b)

Find the force on the car parallel to the slope:

The 2000 N force is already parallel to the slope so we can ignore it for a moment.
The 10 000 N is at an angle of 60 degrees to the slope so we need to use trigonometry to find its component parallel to the slope (look at the small triangle carefully):
Component parallel to the slope = 10 000 cos 60° = 5 000 N down the slope.
Now we can simply subtract the 2 000 N from the 5 000 N force as they are in opposite directions.
So the resultant force parallel to the slope = 5 000 - 2 000 = 3 000 N down the slope.
Now it's your turn!

you minus them up because they are acting in different direction. so one negative is for direction and one is for the velocity. well i am not really sure about my concept of this you better ask your physics teacher :)
OMG!!!!!!!! so simple..........!!!!!!!
thankzzz a lot................
