What is the Minimum number of vectors with unequal magnitudes whose vector sum can be zero?

-- A singe vector with a magnitude of zero produces a zero resultant.-- Two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite directions produce a zero resultant.


What is the minimum numbers of unequal vectors to result into a null vector?

Two vectors; V1 + V2=0 where V1= -V2, two opposite vectors.


Do balanced forces of unequal strengths cancel out each other?

No, balanced forces of unequal strengths do not cancel each other out. Balanced forces occur when two forces of equal strength act in opposite directions, resulting in no change in the object's motion. If forces of unequal strength act on an object in opposite directions, they will not cancel out, and the object will accelerate in the direction of the stronger force.


What is the minimum number of vectors with equal magnitudes whose vector sum can be zero?

Two is the minimum number of vectors that will sum to zero.


One of the conditions necessary for an object to be in equilibrium when acted upon by a number of parallel forces is that the vector sum of the forces is what?

The vector sum of the forces must be zero for an object to be in equilibrium when acted upon by a number of parallel forces. This means that the forces are balanced and there is no net force acting on the object in any direction.


Can the sum of two vectors of unequal magnitudes be a zero vector?

The sum of two unequal vectors can not be zero, because we can get minimum magnitude of two vectors when they are in opposite direction and can only get zero magnitude when they are equal in magnitude.................................... Answered by: SAJJAD AHMED(bfps doha Qatar)


What is it called when the direction of more than one force acting on an object give a net force unequal to zero?

In that case, the forces are said to be unbalanced.


Explain the difference between balanced and unbalanced forces?

Balanced forces - when two forces acting on an object are equal in size but opposite in direction, they cancel each other out and the object remains stationary or continues moving at a constant speed. Unbalanced forces - when two forces acting on an object are unequal in size, the object will accelerate in the direction of the larger force.


Definition of unbalanced forces?

Unbalanced forces are forces that do not cancel each other out, resulting in a net force that causes an object to accelerate in the direction of the greater force. This can lead to a change in the object's speed, direction, or both.


What is the difference between balanced and unbalaced forces?

The vector sum of a group of forces is zero. The vector sum of a group of forces isn't zero.


What are unbalanced forces and what?

Balanced forces describes when all forces on an object are equal. Unbalanced forces describes when the forces on an object are unequal, resulting in movement. Forces are balanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is zero, at which point the object will be at rest or be in motion with constant velocity. Forces are unbalanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is greater or less than zero, at which point the object will accelerate by either starting motion from rest, or changing its motion if it is already in motion, for example, by changing direction or speed.
