Idk how to do this... fan and metal + testimonial... thx :D
Do what exactly?
sorry... was posting from phone... hard to figure out the site on a phone... but...
Sorry.. on my phone... hard tofigu
@Clueless_math
sorry... dog unplugged computer :P
No problem. Do you want me to talk you through it, or just give you the answer?
ummm... can you give me the answer and then explain it please? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Sure. 26.4N;51.8 degrees First break the two down into their x and y components. Do this with the formula: (r1 cos theta + r2 cos theta, r1 sin theta + r2 sin theta) (14*cos(104)+21*cos(20),14*sin(104)+21*sin(20)) then you will have the (x,y) of the resultant vector. (16.3466,20.7666) to get the magnitude use the formula: sqrt(x^2+y^2) sqrt(16.3466^2+20.7666^2) 26.4N to get the direction use this formula: arctan(y/x) arctan(20.7666/16.3466) 51.22 degrees That is not exactly 51.8 degrees but it is really close, so we can chalk the discrepancy up to rounding differences.
Thank you very very very much :D
Do you understand all that?
yes :) and thank you for the formula for the first step... when i found a place that explained it, it didn't give the formula, it just said break it down into the x and y components. makes so much sense in ur explanation :D
Happy to be of assistance!
