When two forces are acting a body in opposite direction their resultant become 6N and when they are acting in the same direction their resultant becomes 12N. What is the value of two forces?

9 and 3 N

Explanation:

Forces in the same direction sum up to produce the resultant force;

One force subtract the other will give the resultant force when they are in opposite directions;

Lets say one direction is forwards and the opposite backwards;

We have one force, let's say force A, in the forwards direction and another force, force B, acting in the same (forwards) or opposite (backwards) direction;

If B is acting in the same direction, then the resultant force (in this case) will be as follows:

A + B = 12

If B is acting in the opposite direction, then the resultant force will be as follows:
A - B = 6

Summing the two equations will allow us to solve for A:

A + B + (A - B) = 12 + 6

2A = 18

A = 9

Substitute this into either of the above equations and we can solve for B:
(9) - B = 6

B = 9 - 6

B = 3
