Question

a) What can you say about the sum of the x components and the sum of the y components of the forces acting on a body when it is in equilibrium? b) Are the components of a vector unique? Are the components of a force equivalent, in their effect, to the force itself? c) Does the order in which you add two or more vectors affect the resultant of these vectors?

          a) What can you say about the sum of the x components and the
sum of the y components of the forces acting on a body when it is
in equilibrium? 
b) Are the components of a vector unique? Are the components of
a force equivalent, in their effect, to the force itself? 
c) Does the order in which you add two or more vectors affect
the resultant of these vectors?

Step 1

Step 1: When a body is in equilibrium, the sum of the x components of all the forces acting on it should be zero, and the sum of the y components of all the forces should also be zero. Show more…
