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 net force on an object when you combine a force of 7 N north with a force of 5 N south?
It is very simple. Since force is a vector quantity we have to add them vectorially. So as two are in opposite directions we get 7-5 = 2 N As Northern force dominates over that in the southern, the resultant 2 N will also be in northern direction.
Velocities in opposite directions combine by what?
Vector addition of velocities would be if something like you were on an escalator, which is going down, and you tried to run up the escalator. So if the escalator is moving down at a rate of 5 ft/sec and you run up at 13 ft/sec (relative to the escalator) then the net velocity relative to the Earth is 8 ft/sec up. So you just subtract, because the two vectors are in the same line. OK so really the direction is at an angle (rather than 'up'). The larger velocity direction will determine the net direction. If you were walking up the escalator at 3 ft/sec (relative to the escalator), then your net velocity is 2 ft/sec down.
Is it possible to combine 2 equal vectors to give a zero resultant?
With equal angles between them - which in this case results in 360° / 3 = 120° separation between the angles.
For a microscope to be useful it must combine two properties?
it must combine magnification and resolution
How do you find the resulting velocity?

Can two vectors having same magnitude combine together can give zero resultant?
Yes, if they are pointing in opposite directions (separated by 180°).
Can two vectors having different magnitude be combined to give a zero resultantis it possible for three vectors?
-- The minimum magnitude that can result from the combination of two vectors is the difference between their magnitudes. If their magnitudes are different, then they can't combine to produce zero. -- But three or more vectors with different magnitudes can combine to produce a zero magnitude.
How do you combine unequal forces acting in opposite directions?
By adding a positive force to a negative force and determining which side has a greater strength will determine the net force.
What is the opposite word for combine?

What do Two or more elements of opposite charge make when they combine?
If they have opposite charges, they attract each other, combine and form an ionic compound.
The opposite of combine?
Disect, lyse or Lysate.

What is the net force of 5.0 N force and an 8.0 N force acting in opposite dirrection?
You can't, unless you know both of their directions. -- If they're in the same direction, then the net force is 10N in that same direction. -- If they're in opposite directions, then the net force is zero, and the direction doesn't matter because there's no net force. -- Depending on their directions, those two forces can combine to produce a net force of anything between zero and 10 N, in any direction. So you need to know their directions in order to figure out what the net force is.
What are the directions for making pepperidge farm stuffing?
The directions for making Pepperidge Farm stuffing is to combine 2 1/2 cups of broth, 2 stalks of celery and 1 onion in a pan. After the vegetables are soft, add one package of their stuffing and toss gently to combine the ingredients.
