Need help figuring out: Using the standard cartesian coordinate system, which of the following vectors have a NEGATIVE X-COMPONENT? Choose all that do.
Do not solve the full qn My question is why is the vector VAot = 1.5 and VAon =-2.6 as shown in the solution. I understand VAot is = -3cos30=-1.5 and VAon = -3sin30 =-2.6 Why is it postive 1.5 instead of negative 1.5 or for VAon why isit negative 2.6 and not positive 2.6? Are you able to show in a vector diagram
Graphical drafting programs, like AutoCAD, will graph and add vectors, showing the resultant and providing its coordinates. Is AutoCAD adding the vectors graphically and measuring the resultant, or is it adding the vectors algebraically and graphing the resultant? Why?
