CoachIn lab experiments, the resultant variable is the dependent variable. It's the result, the data you collect. You change the independent variable to get your data . . . the resultant variable. For example, the height a plant grows depends upon the amount of water it gets. Plant height (your result) would be the resultant (or dependent) variable, and the amount of water added (what you change in order to get a result) is your dependent variable.
Remember, the dependent variable (the result) depends upon the independent variable (what you change to get a result).

How is a resolution of a vector different from the resultant of vectors?
When you resolve a vector, you replace it with two component vectors, usually at right angles to each other. The resultant is a single vector which has the same effect as a set of vectors. In a sense, resolution and resultant are like opposites.
The sum of two or more vectors is called a blank vector?
The two vectors are P & Q..Sum of the two vecotors is P+Q=R..R Is called the resultant vector of this two vector..the action of the resultant vector R is equal to the actions of two vectors P & Q..
A variable that changes as a result of the other variable?
The dependent variable.
Variable is the value whose value depends upon the value of the independent variable?
The dependent variable is the variable that depends on the independent variable.
Are the forces on a see saw balanced?
Only if both ends are at the same height. If a resultant force is more on one side than on the other side, then that will cause the side with the higher resultant to accelerate downwards or upwards, depending on the direction of the resultant force. The forces would be unbalanced in that system.
