Find the resultant of these two vectors: 2.00 x 102 units due east and 4.00 x 102 units 30.0° north of west.
Question
Answer:
If two vectors are represented both in magnitude and direction
by the two adjacent sides of a triangle taken in an order, then their resultant
is given by the third side taken in the reverse order.
Resultant vector :
R = sqrt of A^2 + B^2 + 2ABcosθ
given :
A
= 200 units
B
= 300 units
θ
= 30 degrees
∴ R = sqrt of 200^2 + 300^2 + 2(200)(300)cos35
the answer is 477.805656
