Question

Define resultant vector.

Answer 1

1. A resultant vector is defined as a single vector that produces the same effect as is produced by a number of vectors collectively.
2. It is denoted by $\overrightarrow{R}$.
3. Let $\overrightarrow{A}and\overrightarrow{B}\overrightarrow{}$be the two vectors, then their resultant is given by

$\overrightarrow{A}+\overrightarrow{B}=\overrightarrow{R}$
