What is the difference between perpendicular force and resultant force?
Perpendicular force means they act at right angles to each other, while the resultant is the summation of all the forces acting. The determination of the resultant force often needs vector calculus .
Is resultant a vector quantity?
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.
When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude what is the direction of this resultant?
The zero-vector has no direction.
The sum of two or more vectors is called a what vector?
A resultant Vector.
What is the sum of two vectors A.addition vector B.distance vector C.resultant vector D.displacement vector?
That is usually called the resultant vector.
What the difference between vector and resultant vector?
Equilibrant vector is the opposite of resultant vector, they act in opposite directions to balance each other.
What is the vector equal but opposite to the resultant vector?
equilibrant
What is difference in resultant vector and vector resolution?
the difference between resultant vector and resolution of vector is that the addition of two or more vectors can be represented by a single vector which is termed as a resultant vector. And the decomposition of a vector into its components is called resolution of vectors.
What is the difference between a resultant vector and a component vector?
The resultant vector describes the complete vector, magnitude and direction; while the component vector describes a single component of a vector, like the x-component. If the resultant vector has only one component, the resultant and the component are the same and there is no difference.t
How does the equilibrant force compare with the resulltant force?
The resultant is a trigonometric function, usually using the Law of Cosines in two dimensional solution by vector resolution, of two or more known forces while equilibrant is equal in magnitude to the resultant, it is in the opposite direction because it balances the resultant.Therefore, the equilibrant is the negative of the resultant.
How do you change the magnitude of the resultant vector between two if the angle between them decreases?
If the angle decreases, the magnitude of the resultant vector increases.
Define the angle of the equilibrant vector?
vector equal in magnitude and opposite direction
What is the result of multiplying vector components by a scalar?
If the scalar is > 1 the resultant vector will be larger and in the same direction. = 1 the resultant vector will be the same as the original vector. between 0 and 1 the resultant vector will be smaller and in the same direction. = 0 the resultant vector will be null. If the scalar is less than 0, then the pattern will be the same as above except that the direction of the resultant will be reversed.
If a vector of magnitude 3 is added to a vector of magnitude 4 what can the magnitude of the resultant be?
7
How do you find missing vector if resultant is given?
The Resultant Vector minus the other vector
Define the angle of the resultant vector?
The resultant vector is the vector that 'results' from adding two or more vectors together. This vector will create some angle with the x -axis and this is the angle of the resultant vector.
What is the difference between perpendicular force and resultant force?
Perpendicular force means they act at right angles to each other, while the resultant is the summation of all the forces acting. The determination of the resultant force often needs vector calculus .
