Question

Problem 3: A B C Vector Horizontal Component A B C R Vertical Component Magnitude of R (Pythagorean theorem) = 3. Assume that you had 3 vectors that had a magnitude of 3 m, 4 m, and 5 m respectively. Would the vector sum of those three vectors always be 12 m (3+4+5)? Draw an example of the three vectors tip to tail where the vector sum IS 12, and if possible draw the three vectors tip to tail where the vector sum IS NOT 12.

Step 1

To find the horizontal component of a vector, we can use the formula: Horizontal Component = Magnitude * cos(angle) To find the vertical component of a vector, we can use the formula: Vertical Component = Magnitude * sin(angle) For vector A with a magnitude of 3 Show more…
