'3) A vector A has components Ax = 12.0 m and Ay = 5.00 m. (a) What is the angle that vector makes with the +x-axis? (b) What is the magnitude of vector K?'
Added by Sean R.
Step 1
0 m and Ay = 5.00 m. Given that Ax = 12.0 m and Ay = 5.00 m, we can use the arctan function to find the angle: θ = arctan(Ay/Ax) = arctan(5.00/12.0) = arctan(0.4167) ≈ 22.6° Show more…
