The equilibrant of a force is the force which is equal and opposite to that force. If two forces are equal and opposite, their x and y components are also equal, but the x and y components of the force are opposite in sign to those of the equilibrant.
The x and y components of a force are 2 Newtons and 3 Newtons repectively.
• What are the magnitudes of this force and what angle does it make as measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis?
2 newtons and 3 newtons
This would make a small angle.

• What are the components of the equilibrant force?
If one component is positive and the other one is negative.

It is a small angle??? Don’t understand?
