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 respectively.

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

tan^-1(3/2)= 56 deg

the force has negative x and y components.

If the x component is negative then the angle is tan^-1(3/2) + 180 deg = 56 deg + 180 deg = 226 deg.

• What are the components of the force?
