A force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right . The size and direction of resultant force is 1)4N
2)28N to the right
3) 4 N to the right

4 N to the right

Explanation:

The force acting to the right of the body is acting in the positive x direction while the force acting to the left of the body is acting in the negative x direction.

If a force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right, force acting to the left will be -12N while that acting to the right will be +16N.

The resultant force acting on the bod will be the sum of the two forces.

Resultant = -12N+16N

Resultant = 4N

The direction of the resultant force will be towards the right since the resultant is a positive value.

W= fd
where f is an applied force and d is the distance over which it is applied. when a parachuting skydiver is at constant velocity, he is experiencing "terminal velocity", the point at which his acceleration down is canceled out by air resistance. that means that the resisting force of the air is equal to his weight, but in the opposite direction. with this, we can solve for the work done by the force.
w = fd
w = (92.0)(9.81 m/s^2) (325)
w= 2.93 x 10^5 j
the value for work in this case is positive because it is pushing up on the skydiver, who has a downward force of gravity.
therefore the answer is 2.93 x 10^5 j
