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.

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.
What is the angel when vector a is same as vector b and there resultant is same as given vector a and b?
If vector a and b are truly identical, their resultant angle will be the same. Their resultant velocity will not be the same, however. Assuming you mean the magnitudes are the same, the two vectors will be at an angle of 120o
Define the angle of the equilibrant vector?
vector equal in magnitude and opposite direction
If a vector of magnitude 3 is added to a vector of magnitude 4 what can the magnitude of the resultant be?

How do you find missing vector if resultant is given?

How will you get the resultant of all vectors?
Graphical Vector AdditionDraw your first vector. Then draw the tail (start) of your second vector at the tip (end) of your first vector. Then draw the tail of your third vector at the tip of you third vector (if it exists,) and so on. To find the resultant, draw a vector from the tail of the first vector to the tip of the last vector. The angle of the resultant will be between the resultant's tail and the first vector's tail. To find these values, it is recommended that you use a scale (e.g. 1cm:1m) and a protractor so that your values are accurate.Or, to do it mathematically (with 2 vectors):You have vector a with angle Ao, and vector b with angle Bo.To get vector c (resultant,) break the vectors up into their x and y components, then add the x and y components to find the x and y of the resultant. To find the magnitude of vector c, use Pythagoras's theorem, a2 + b2 = c2. To find the angle of c, use inverse tangent, tan-1(y/x)Example:Remember that sin = y and cos = x. Thus, to find the x component of a vector, use cos, and to find the y component of a vector, use sin.c = square root( (acosA + bcosB)2 + (asinA + bsinB)2 )angle of c = tan-1( (asinA + bsinB)/(bcosA + bcosB) )
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
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.
How will you get the third vector if the 1st and 2nd vector was given and the resultant vector is equal to 0?
by method of finding resultant
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 angle between two vectors if their sum is to be maximum?
The resultant vector has maximum magnitude if the vectors act in concert. That is, if the angle between them is 0 radians (or degrees). The magnitude of the resultant is the sum of the magnitudes of the vectors.For two vectors, the resultant is a minimum if the vectors act in opposition, that is the angle between them is pi radians (180 degrees). In this case the resultant has a magnitude that is equal to the difference between the two vectors' magnitudes, and it acts in the direction of the larger vector.At all other angles, the resultant vector has intermediate magnitudes.
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.
