Question

write relations between resultant and equilibrant.​

Answer 1

The difference between a resultant and equilibrant vector is that resultant vector is a direct quantity, one with both magnitude and direction, while the equilibrant vector is a force equal to, but opposite of, the resultant sum of vector forces, that force which balances other forces, thus bringing an object to equilibrium.

Answer 2

The relationship between resultant and equilibrant are-

• equilibrant is the end result of a reaction to the resultant force.

• equilibrant is opposite in direction as compared to resultant, but the main similarity is they are of same magnitude.

• For example- when we push a box and it does not move, then the push is considered as a resultant while the friction that is keeping the box at its place is considered as equilibrant.
