Given the following vectors: A= 8 N 30 deg west of north, B=5N 30 deg S of W, C = 2 N Northeast, perform the following vector operation: \(\vec R= \vec A + \vec B + \vec C\) (all directions must be given w.r.t the +x-axis)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[\vec R = \vec A + \vec B + \vec C\] There we go.

OpenStudy (dumbcow):
