When a fluid, moves in a single direction, it exerts very little pressure
perpendicular to the direction of its flow.
F. Resultants when angle between forces ≠ 90°
Ex) 5 N North & 3 N 30° S of E act concurrently (on a single point).
Find the resultant & equilibrant.
Graphical Method
1. Draw vectors to scale
2. Make parallelogram
3. Draw diagonal (resultant)
4. Find magnitude & direction of vector
Graphical Method
1. Measure length, Convert to Newtons using scale 1 cm = 1 N
2. Measure angle vector makes with horizontal
R = 4.5 N 53° N of E
E = 4.5 N 53° S of W
