19.1 seed
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 the equilibrant of a force are 2 Newtons and 3 Newtons repectively.
• What angle does the equilibrant force make as measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : To answer this we need to take the Tan(3/2) which gives an angle of 56.3 degrees.
• What are the components of the equilibrant force?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : equilibrant forces are those that will balance out two other forces. This means that the direction of the two other forces are factors and the strength of those two forces.
