Question

a
subtract from each other
b
cancel out
c
go on infinitely
d
eventually reach equilibrium

Answer 1

When two forces are in opposite directions and they are of the exact same magnitude, the forces will:

b. cancel out

This is because the equal and opposite forces exerted on each other will result in a net force of zero, effectively canceling each other out.
