What is an equilibrant?

Question

(Points : 1)
an object that has zero net force acting on it

two chemical reactions proceeding at the same rate in opposite directions

a force that makes the net force on an object zero

a force in the same direction as the net force

Question 2. 2. How is the equilibrant related to the net force?
(Points : 1)
It is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

It is equal in magnitude and acts in the same direction.

It is always smaller in magnitude than the net force.

It is always larger in magnitude than the net force.

Question 3. 3. Which of these statements is always true?
(Points : 1)
If an object is moving, a net force is acting on it.

An object in equilibrium must not be in motion.

A moving object in equilibrium continues at a constant velocity.

A moving object in equilibrium can change its direction but not its speed.

Answer 1

- a force that makes the net force on an object zero
- It is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
- A moving object in equilibrium continues at a constant velocity.

Answer 2

1. A force that makes the net force on an object zero.
2. It is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
3. An moving object in equilibrium continues at a constant velocity.
