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 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.
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.
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.
How do you find the resulting 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.
What are the direction of two vectors when their resultant is zero?
opposite
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.
When two equal and opposite vectors are added their resultant vector has zero magnitude.What is the direction of this resultant?
Thee direction of the two vectors.
A resultant vector is?
a resultant vector not only the resultant of two or three vector. it is the resultant direction of two or many vectors.(let us push an object with same force in opposite direction the resultant is zero and if we push in same direction the force will double.if we pull a object with same force in x and y direction the resultant force in 45 degrees to x axis)
How can you find the net force if two forces act in the same direction?
forces in the same direction can be added to give us the resultant force and opposite force will subtracted to get resultant force
What affects whether a resultant force accelerates or decelerates an object?
Deceleration is merely acceleration in a direction opposite to the original motion. If something isnt moving it cannot be decelerated but if it is moving and the resultant force acts in the opposite direction to motion it will decelerate the object.
What is an example when resultant force is zero but resultant torque is not zero?
A couple: 2 parallel forces equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction separated by a distance.
