QUESTION:
A vector has a magnitude of 40.0 m and points in a direction 20.0 below the positive x axis. A second vector, , has a magnitude of 75.0 m and points in a direction 50.0 above the positive x axis. (a) Sketch the vectors , and . (b) Using the component method of vector addition, nd the magnitude and direction of the vector .
ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
Given that,
Magnitude of vector first vector is
The angle made by the same vector is
The magnitude of the second vector is
The angle made by the second vector is
Let the first vector be
Therefore,
And second vector be
Therefore,
