Answer 1

What do you think it is?

Answer 2

you've got an x component and a y component.

Answer 3

One vector is \(\langle 3.5, 0 \rangle\)m. The other vector is \(\langle 0, 5.6\rangle\)m. You just add them up.

Answer 4

oh, now i get the component thing

Answer 5

is this how the question looks like in sketch?
