How do you find resultant velocity?
When you combine 2 velocities that are in the same directions, add them together to find the resultant velocity. When you combine 2 velocities that are in opposite directions, subtract the smaller velocity from the larger velocity to find the resultant velocity.
How are velocities in the same direction combined?
As the velocities are in the same direction then addition of vectors becomes so easy. We simply add the magnitudes of the velocities. If velocities go exactly opposite, then we get the difference of their magnitudes. If velocity vectors get inclined, then we use the parallelogram law of vectors to get the resultant.
What is a device that expels gas in one direction to move in the opposite dirction?
That sounds like a rocket.
What is the difference between resultant and equilibrant vector?
Equilibrant vector is the opposite of resultant vector, they act in opposite directions to balance each other.
When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude what is the direction of this resultant?
The zero-vector has no direction.
What is the example of a condition when the resultant of two velocities is zero?
Only if the two velocities are equal in magnitude but in opposite directions.

What is the opposite dirction of SSW?
NNE
What is the resultant velocity if the kph for west is 1400 and the velocity for east is 20 kph?
Because the two velocities are in the opposite directions, you can directly subtract their numeric values. (1400 - 20) kph in the larger velocities direction. The answer is 1380 kph West.
What is fractional force?
the force which results by the taeching of two surfeces ,which allways in the opposite dirction of motion

Calculate resultant velocity?
First you have to resolve all forces into vertical and horizontal. If it on a slope take the reaction force as vertical and the slope as horizontal. Then equate the opposite forces, for example the friction and the driving force, and use maths to figure out the resultant.
What are the direction of two vectors when their resultant is zero?
opposite
