How is a resolution of a vector different from the resultant of vectors?

When you resolve a vector, you replace it with two component vectors, usually at right angles to each other. The resultant is a single vector which has the same effect as a set of vectors. In a sense, resolution and resultant are like opposites.

The sum of two or more vectors is called a blank vector?
The two vectors are P & Q..Sum of the two vecotors is P+Q=R..R Is called the resultant vector of this two vector..the action of the resultant vector R is equal to the actions of two vectors P & Q..
What is the resultant acceleration?
Acceleration is a vector, meaning each acceleration has both magnitude and direction. The resultant of vectors is basically the net acceleration on the object expressed as a single vector. For example, if there are two vectors each with a magnitude of 2 meters/(seconds squared) acting on an object and these vectors were placed on the x and y axes then you could represent this system of 2 vectors 90 degrees apart each with a magnitude of two meters/(seconds squared) as one vector of 45 degrees with a magnitude of 2 times the square root of 2 meters/(seconds squared).
A quantity that has direction as well as size is a?
a vector
What is meant by the resultant force?
A resultant force is more commonly known as a net force. According to newton's second law of motion the net force is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object. The net force can also be found out using vector addition.

What is difference in resultant vector and vector resolution?
the difference between resultant vector and resolution of vector is that the addition of two or more vectors can be represented by a single vector which is termed as a resultant vector. And the decomposition of a vector into its components is called resolution of vectors.
Is resultant a vector quantity?
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.
What is a Resultant Vectors?
resultant vector is a vector which will have the same effect as the sum of all the component vectors taken together.
The sum of two or more vectors is called a blank vector?
The two vectors are P & Q..Sum of the two vecotors is P+Q=R..R Is called the resultant vector of this two vector..the action of the resultant vector R is equal to the actions of two vectors P & Q..
Can two vectors having different magnitude be compined to give a zero resultant can three vector?
Two vectors, no; three vectors yes.
Does the resultant take into account the direction of the two vectors?
Yes, a resultant vector is the vector sum of the two vectors. It has it's own direction and magnitude.
What is meant by resultant of a vector?
A resultant vector is one vector which can replace all the other vectors and produce the same effect.
The sum of two or more vectors is called a what vector?
A resultant Vector.
Define the angle of the resultant vector?
The resultant vector is the vector that 'results' from adding two or more vectors together. This vector will create some angle with the x -axis and this is the angle of the resultant vector.
Sum of two or more vectors?
A resultant vector.
What does the addition of 2 vectors give you?
a resultant vector
Can the magnitude of a resultant vector be greater than the sum of individual vectors?
The resultant vector IS the sum of the individual vectors. Its magnitudecan be the sum of their individual magnitudes or less, but not greater.
