    22 hours ago · When two forces act on a point particle, the resulting force, the resultant (also called the net force), can be determined by following the parallelogram rule of vector addition: the addition of two vectors represented by sides of a parallelogram, gives an equivalent resultant vector that is equal in magnitude and direction to the ...

  4. Jun 15, 2024 · The resultant of a set of forces acting at a point is the single force that would have the same effect as the combined forces. If the resultant is zero then the system is in equilibrium and there will be no acceleration (but remember, that doesn’t necessarily mean no movement, just no changes in motion!).

  5. Jun 27, 2024 · What are Newton’s Laws of Motion? An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force. The acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied.

  6. Jun 27, 2024 · Force, in mechanics, any action that tends to maintain or alter the motion of a body or to distort it. The concept of force is commonly explained in terms of Isaac Newton’s three laws of motion. Because force has both magnitude and direction, it is a vector quantity.
