How is a resolution of a vector different from the resultant of vectors?

When you resolve a vector, you replace it with two component vectors, usually at right angles to each other. The resultant is a single vector which has the same effect as a set of vectors. In a sense, resolution and resultant are like opposites.


Is resultant a vector quantity?

The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.


Can the resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either of the vector. How?

Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees. In that case, the two vectors, and the resultant, form an equilateral triangle.Yes - if the vectors are at an angle of 60 degrees.

If a set of vectors is laid head to tail and formed a closed polygon is the resultant zero?

yes it is


How many minimum of vectors are required in space to get resultant zero?

Assuming you want non-zero vectors, two opposing vectors will give a resultant of zero.


The resultant between 2 vectors can be found by placing the vectors?

When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude.What is the direction of this resultant?

Thee direction of the two vectors.


What is the angle needed for the smallest resultant of two vectors?

The smallest resultant of two vectors is the sum of two equal vectors which make an angle of 180 degrees among each other.


What is a Resultant Vectors?

resultant vector is a vector which will have the same effect as the sum of all the component vectors taken together.


What is it called when vectors are added or subtracted?

resultant


What is the rule for adding vectors?

The general rule for adding vectors is to hook them together "head to tail" and then draw in a resultant vector. The resultant will have the magnitude and direction that represents the sum of the two vectors that were added.


How can you add three vectors of equal magnitude in a plane such as their resultant is zero?

Take any three vectors in a plane which, when placed end-to-end form a triangle. The resultant of the three vectors will be zero.
