Chapter 9: Q. 5 (page 603)

If v=ai+bj, then ais called the _________ component of vand bis called the _________ component of v.

Short Answer

Expert verified

If v=ai+bj, then a is called the horizontal component ofvand bis called the vertical component of v.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1 Definition for the horizontal and vertical component:

The original vector, defined relative to a set of axes. The horizontal component stretches from the start of the vector to its furthest x-coordinate. The vertical component stretches from the x-axis to the most vertical point on the vector. Together, the two components and the vector form a right triangle.

02

Step 2 For any vector,

v=ai+bj,aandbare called the horizontal and the vertical components respectively.
