Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The sum of two or more vectors is called the
A
direction
B
displacement
C
resultant vector
D
frame of reference
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The resultant is the vector sum of two or more vectors. It is the result of adding two or more vectors together. If displacement vectors A, B, and C are added together, the result will be vector R. As shown in the diagram, vector R can be determined by the use of an accurately drawn, scaled, vector addition diagram.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .

Detailed explanation-3: -A resultant vector is defined as a single vector that produces the same effect as is produced by a number of vectors collectively.

Detailed explanation-4: -The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object.
