vector-a-has-magnitude-800-mathrmm-and-is-in-the-x-y-plane-at-an-angle-of-127circ-counterclockwise-f-27712

Vector $A$ has magnitude $8.00 \mathrm{~m}$ and is in the $x y$ -plane at an angle of $127^{\circ}$ counterclockwise from the $+x$ -axis $\left(37^{\circ}\right.$ past the $+y$ -axis). What are the magnitude and direction of vector $\vec{B}$ if the $\operatorname{sum} \vec{A}+\vec{B}$ is in the $-y$ -direction and has magnitude $12.0 \mathrm{~m} ?$

Vector A has a magnitude of 13.9 and its direction is 170° counter-clockwise from the +x direction. Vector B has a magnitude of 15.5 and its direction is 320° counter-clockwise from the +x direction. (a) Use the head-to-tail method to draw the resultant vector of A + B using Cartesian coordinate system (x-y coordinates). (b) What are the x- and y-components of A?

00:01 Hello guys, in this problem we have a vector a.
00:03 The magnitude of the vector a is 3 .5 meter and it makes angle 145 degrees counterclockwise with positive x -axis.
00:14 Now we have to find out the x component and the y component of vector a.
00:18 The x component of vector a equals the magnitude of vector a times cosine of the angle made theta with positive x -axis...
