two vectors, one with a magnitude of 14 units and one with a magnitude of 5 units, are both pointing east. what is the resultant of these two vectors?

Respuesta :

The resultant of these two vectors is 19 units.

Explanation

As we know R = A + B

where is R resultant A and B are vectors is possible only if the both the vectors are in the same direction.

Therefore, R = 14 + 5

                     19 units

What is resultant force?

A resultant force is the single force and corresponding torque that are created when a system of forces and torques acting on a rigid body is added together using vectors in physics and engineering. A consequent force, also known as a resultant force-torque, is one that acts on a rigid body in the same way as the initial system of forces.

Through computational analysis or (in the case of sufficiently simple systems) a free body diagram, the resultant force on a body is calculated and visualized.

The resultant force's location of application defines the torque it produces. Some people use the term resultant force-torque to describe the forces and torques acting on a rigid body; the word resultant force should be understood to include both.
