What is an equilibrant?

Physics

Damm [24]3 years ago

<span>The equilibrant, also known as the counterbalancer in a force system, is an equal but opposite force that produces equilibrium. It acts against the resultant force to keep a body motionless. Suppose we have a 20kg mass on one end of a swing and nothing on the other. The swing will be titled unevenly because no force balances the 20kg weight. On the other hand suppose a weight of 40kg rest on the other end. This force doesn't produce equilibrium either because it isn't equal to the 20kg weight; the swing would tilt towards the weight of larger mass. A 20kg mass will balance the system. Hence the force which balances other forces, thus bringing an object to equilibrium is the equilbrant.</span>

erik [133]

Answer:

F = 120 N

Explanation:

Force x distance = energy

The bike has energy 1/2 . 80 . 6^2   = 1440 J

You are looking at an example of not reading the question properly.

Impulse = Force . time  = change in momentum

F . 4  = 80 .6

F = 120 N

The phase change in which a substance changes from a gas directly to a solid is
vlabodo [156]
<span>Condensation is the change of the substance from liquid to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice. Vaporization is the change of substance from liquid to gas phase. Example of this is the boiling of water. Deposition is the change of a substance from gas to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice on a winter day. Sublimation is the change of a substance from solid to gas phase. Example of this is dry ice. The answer is letter C.</span>

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of plane relative to ground V_pg = ?

Given the velocity in vector form ,

velocity of plane relative to air V_pw = 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j

V_wg = 60 i

V_pg = V_pw +V_wg

= 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j + 60i

= 164 i + 60 j

magnitude
