Which are those two vectors whose resultant vector is zero?
They are vectors of equal magnitudes in oppositedirections. When you add them, they cancel out each other.
What is the variables of throwing?
wind and its direction amount of force applied may differ each throw aiming skills
How much does a Newton weigh - pounds?
A newton is not a measure of weight, it is a measure of force. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at the the rate of 1 meter per second each second. (1 N = 1 kg.m/s2) A newton of force (in the downwards direction) at Earth's surface is numerically similar (but a bit smaller) than the mass of the object times 10 since the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80665 m/s2 at that location. In the Imperial system the equivalent unit is pound force, again this is not a weight. 1 pound-force is equivalent to 32.17 lb(mass).ft/s2.
How do you find the resultant if the vector is parallel to each other?
Just by adding
Statement of polygon law of forces?
if several COPLANAR FORCES are acting at a point simultaneously such that each one of them can be represented in direction and magnitude by a side of a polygon, taken in order, then the resultant is given by the closing side in the reverse order
A 100 pound force to the west and a 50 pound force in the same direction what is the resultant force in each?
it will not be balance
How do you figure out net force for opposing forces?
If the opposing forces are pulling exactly opposite of each other, then take the difference of the magnitudes of the two forces (subtract the smaller value from the larger value), and the direction vector of the resultant force is in the same direction as the larger force.
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 .
How do you describe newton's 2nd law?
Newton's second law states the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the resultant force on the body and is in the same direction as the resultant force.
What is the algebraic formula of the resultant of 3 forces acting upon a point?
Resultant Force = (Force1) + (Force2) + (Force3)where each term in the formula is a Vector.
What is nonzero net force?
It means that the vector sum of all forces acting on an object is not zero - if there is more than one force, the vectors don't cancel each other completely. In this case, there will be an acceleration.
What is the resultant force if the first force has an upward vector and the second force has a downward vector?
If the two vectors are directly opposite each other, then subtract the smaller one from the larger one and that will be your resultant force. For example, if the force downwards is 5 N and the force upwards is 2 N, the resultant force is 3 N downwards. If the one or both of the two vectors are angled, you need to replace the angled vectors with two right-angled vectors and then add those to create the resultant vectors.
How would you calculate the resultant velocity of two velocity in opposite direction?
take them away from each other for example if there is a car with 20g to the left and 50 to the right the overall gravity force would be 30 to the right
What is the defonaition for Unbalanced?
balanced means that the resultant would be 0 (i.e the 2 (or more) forces cancel each other out) unbalanced means that the resultant force is NOT 0
When two forces are acting on an object are equal what are they?
Two equal forces (equal in magnitude and direction) result in simply double each individual force. However, if the forces are acting opposite to each other they will cancel each other out and they cause a resultant force of zero. This means the object is in linear equilibrium and is either moving at a constant speed or is stationary.

Characteristics of non contact force?
two objects that appy equal force to eachother. Such as when you balance two cards against each other. Neither card is applying greater force than the other, so they stand. If this were not the case, however, then the two cards would fall due to the unequal forces
