Two forces acting in the same direction add together. If those two forces are acting on an object, the object will accelerate faster than if there was only one force acting on the object.
When two forces act in the same direction their magnitudes are added (cumulative.)
the net forces add up lik a net force of 200 goin >
and a net force of 100>
200
+ 100
---------
300 net force
the forces both add together
A combined force..?
They add.
No, they are not. The forces are balanced only when forces of equal magnitude are acting in the opposite direction.
Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.
When they are acting on the same object at the exact same spot. For example pressure pushes in every direction at 14.7 psi, say there is a box and you push it upward the force pushing up is more than the force pushing down.
Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.
To vague of a question
how two forces are added if they are not concurrent but are acting in same direction
In the same direction, you simply add them
The object will move faster
This is the simplest case of vector addition. If two forces are acting in the same direction, then you can just add them, to get the net force.

if the two forces are acting in an opposit direction they can not be in equilibrum.but if they acting in thesame direction from different angles they can be in equilibrum.

You find the vector sum of all the forces. That is the resultant, or net, force.
