Chapter 1, Problem 64P

(a)

To determine

Using the graphical method show that the order in which the vectors are added which does not change the final displacement.

(b)

To determine

Using the graph estimate the length of D and the angle made with the positive x axis.

Students have asked these similar questions
Two vectors have magnitudes of 397m and 47.23m. The angle between them when they are drawn with their tails at the same point is 54.49°. Give the component of the longer vector (in m) along the line perpendicular to the shorter vector (in the plane of the vectors).    Give the formula first then solve.
I need the answer to D
Consider two vectors A = 3î – 2ĵ and B = –î – 4j. a) Calculate A + B. b) Calculate the magnitude of Á + B. This quantity is sometimes denoted by Á + B|. c) Calculate the direction of à + B.
