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 magnitude of this force and what angle does it make as measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis?

4 + 9 = 13 = L^2, L = 3.6 N

`theta = arctan ( 1.5) = 56 degrees counterclockwise

What are the components of the equilibrant force?

x comp = -2 N

y comp = -3 N

What angle does the equilibrant force make as measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis?

56 + 180 = 236 degrees
