"two forces 5 Newtons and 15 Newtons acting concurrently could have a resultant of"

If they're both acting in the same direction, their resultant force is the sum of both forces.

think about it this way also. Concentric means force producing. So if they are going the same direction they would be a sum of. If they were going opposite direction it would be the change or net force. etc.

Concentric means having the same center, and isn't mentioned in this problem....

Concurrently means at the same time.

Neither mean force producing.

The resultant force is a net force; the net force on an object is always the sum total of the forces acting on it.  If they are opposing forces, one of the forces would be negative relative to the other, so summing them would result in a net force that is smaller in magnitude than either separately.  These are also both static forces, so there would be no "change" to speak of.  ^_^

yes you are correct, sorry I miss read the problem. I think it answer two, I got verbiage transposed
