The correct answer is 'B'.

Explicación

## Step 1The problem is about calculating the net force when two forces act on an object in different directions. The options provided are:- finding the larger of the two forces- subtracting the two forces- adding the two forces- none of the above## Step 2The correct method to calculate the net force when two forces act on an object in different directions is to subtract the smaller force from the larger one. This is because the forces are acting in opposite directions, so we subtract the smaller force from the larger one to find the net force.## Step 3However, the option "subtracting the two forces" is not the correct answer because it implies that the forces are acting in the same direction, which is not the case in this problem.## Step 4The option "adding the two forces" is also not the correct answer because it implies that the forces are acting in the same direction, which is not the case in this problem.## Step 5The option "none of the above" is not the correct answer because there is a correct answer among the options.
