last question! help please, can't figure this one out
what's this, a test question?
no, homewoek
work*
well break up both vectors to I and J components and add the components
how? i don't understand
well for example U is 22.9 units long aka magnitude Point at 25.6 degrees Its i component is 22.9*cos(25.6) Its j component is 22.9*sin(25.6) now do that for v and add the components remember i component = magnitude * cos(theta) j componen=magniture * sin(theta)
do same for v and get back to me :)
i = 41*cos(122) j=41* sin(122)
Yes also make sure your calculator is in degree mode not radians you should get for U= a*i + b*j V= c*i + d*j wher a, b, c, and d are constants (a+c)*i this this is x component of U+V (b+d)*j this is Y component of U+V
what is a b c d?
a*i is is x componen of U Get by magnitude of U * cos (theta of v) = 22.9 * cos(25.6) b is y component of U mag of * sin(theta of v c is x comp of V d is y comp of V
