Two forces 3N and 4N act on a body in directions due north and due east respectively. Calculate their equilibrant
5N 53° east of North
5N 53° west of the south
5N 37° north of east
7N 37° west of North
7N 37° south of west

The ans is B... the equilibrant will be in opposite direction with resultant sO ur ans is the direction of the resultant not the equilibrant therefore 5N 53• west of south

Pls myschool am having probem with my class room messages, wenever I click on the question where I have message I will be re-directed to another question entirely

B is the answer although am not really familiar with equilibrium, but from what I learnt is the answer

None of the options is correct, the correct answer ought to be 5N, 37° South West or West of South.

The correct answer ought to be 5N, 53° South West or West of South.
So option B is correct.
Equilibrant is opposite in direction to the resultant but they are equal in magnitude.
