Source sentences:
text: When two forces act on a point particle, the resulting force, the resultant (also called the net force), can be determined by following the parallelogram rule of vector addition: the addition of two vectors represented by sides of a parallelogram, gives an equivalent resultant vector that is equal in magnitude and direction to the transversal of the parallelogram.
text: Equilibrium occurs when the resultant force acting on a point particle is zero (that is, the vector sum of all forces is zero).
