The particle with both forces acting on it will move at constant velocity
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:
[tex]F=ma[/tex]
where
F is the net force
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
For the particle in this problem, initially it has a forward force of
[tex]F_1 = 10 N[/tex]
Later, it encounters a second additional force in the opposite direction, therefore
[tex]F_2 = -10 N[/tex]
This means that the net force on the particle now is
[tex]F=F_1+F_2 = +10 +(-10) = 0[/tex]
As a consequence, the acceleration of the particle is zero:
[tex]a=0[/tex]
And this means that the particle moves with constant velocity.
