What is determined by combining forces?
this is the net resultant force acting on the object, taking into account all of the forces acting, their strength and direction.
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]
How are balanced force and net force similar?
Net force is a vector sum of all the forces acting on the object. When forces acting on the body are balanced, their vector sum, or net force, is equal to zero.
What is it called when the result of unbalanced forces acting on an object?
Movement, of some sort. For example, when you are standing still, the normal force is balanced with the force due to gravity. But, when you jump off a cliff, the forces are not balanced anymore (no more normal force), so you fall (movement).
Explain why the polygon of forces must close when a body is in equilibrium?
The answer is in the definition: polygon of forces(plural polygons of forces) # (mechanics) A polygonal figure the sides of which are vectors representing several forces acting simultaneously upon one point, so that the vector necessary to make the figure closed is the resultant of those forces.
If a book remains stationary on a table are the forces acting upon the book in equilibrium what is the resultant of the force acting upon the book?
All of the forces together balance out. The resultant of the forces is therefore nil. That applies to all equilibrium.
What is a resultant?
A resultant is when a force equivelent to two or more other forces acting in different directions at the same point.AnswerA resultant is when a force equivelent to two or more other forces acting in different directions at the same point.
What is d'alembert's principle?
the principle that resultant of the external forces and kinetic reaction acting forces is zero
What is sum of the forces that are acting on an object?
Net Force, Or Net Resultant Force, or Resultant force
Two types of unbalanced forces and what a balanced force is?
If the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is zero, the forces are called balanced forces. 2 types of unbalanced forces are naet force and resultant force.
What term to the sum of all of the forces acting an object?
resultant or net force
What is determined by combining forces?
this is the net resultant force acting on the object, taking into account all of the forces acting, their strength and direction.
What is th resultant force between balanced force?
"Balanced forces" means that the sum of all forces acting on an object - i.e., the resultant force - is equal to zero.
What terms refer to the sum of all the forces acting an object?
resultant or net force
What terms refers to the sum of all the forces acting on an object?
resultant or net force
What is a single force that has the combined effect of all the forces acting on an object called?
Resultant
When you add all the forces acting on an object together what do you get?
net force
