If two identical forces are acting on a body find the angle when resultant is maximum?

Zero degrees. This essentially adds up the forces.


What is the magnitude of the resultant force in Newtons acting on an object that has 2 forces acting in same direction having magnitudes of 15 N and 25 N and a 3rd force acting perpendicular at 30 N?

Add forces 1 and 2 = 40N Magnitude of resultant = root[402+302] = 50N [Also, this is at an angle of 36.9 degrees to the 30N force]


At what angle is the resultant force acting?

it is acting opposite the the equilibrium.


What is the resultant of two forces 4N and 5N exerted at an angle 30 degrees between them?

using parallelogram principle. 15.5N


Two equal forces have their resultant equal to eitherat what angle are they inclined?

The question can only be answered if the MAGNITUDE of the resultant is equal to either. Although this is not stated, if that is the case, the answer is 60 degrees.


What are forces equal in strength but opposite in directions?

Two unequal forces The resultant force of two unequal forces clearly depends upon the magnitude of these forces and also depends on the angle of interception. One can clearly apply trigonometrical theorem for the same. such as if force x and force y of x1 and y1 magnitude is acting on an object N and if the angle between these forces is (180) degrees this means they are acting on opposite direction , and resultant force will be in direction of force x1 ir x1 > y1 or y1 if y1 < x1 So these unequal forces must be studied along with the angle of interception Hope this will give you a fair idea for calculation ( force is a vector and not scalier)


How does the resultant of two vectors change as the angle between the two vectors increase?

The resultant decreases from 0 degrees until the angle is 180 degrees and then increases until 360 degrees.


What happen to the magnitude of forces as the angle between them is increased?

Assuming the forces are acting on the same object, as the angle between them increases from 0 (acting in the same direction) to 180 (acting in opposite directions) the total force acting on the object starts at a maximum and decreses to a minimum at 180 degrees.


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.

What is the minimum number of unequal vectors that give a zero resultant?

Three One is obviously out. Two is out because if two unequal forces n and p act on an object the resultant with the minimum force in magnitude is |n - p|, which will never be 0 if n =/= p. Three can be easily resolved with a quick example. Imagine an object with three concurrent forces acting on it. Two forces, n = 3 N and p = 4 N, create an angle with each other such that the resultant is 5 N. 180 degrees from the resultant, a force, r = 5 N, is acting on the object. Thus three unequal vectors on an object can result in 0.


What is the effect on the resultant of increasing the angle between the two forces?

The direction will change; the magnitude of the resultant force will be less.
