Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

a=(4.00m)i-(3.00m)jb=(6.00m)i+(8.00m)j

02

Determining the concept

Find the magnitude of any vector by using its values and perform different vector operations using vector algebra. Also,find the angle between vectors and axis usingtrigonometry.

Formulae are as follow:

Magnitudeofaisaax2+ay2

AnglebetweenaandXaxisis迟补苍胃=ayaxa+b=ax+bxi+ay+byja-b=ax-bxi+ay+byj

where,a,b are vectors and is the angle betweenaxanday.

03

(a) Determining the magnitude of a→

The magnitude ofa is,

a=4.02+-3.02=5.0m

Hence, magnitude of is 5.0 m .

04

(b) Determining the angle of a→

The angle betweenaand X axis is,

=tan-1yx=tan-1-3.04.0=-37

Hence, the vector is 370 clockwise from X axis.

05

(c) Determining the magnitude of b→

The magnitude of bis,

b=6.02+8.02=10.0m

Hence,magnitudeb of is 10.0m .

06

(d) Determining the angle of b→

The angle between band X axis is,

=tan-1yx=tan-18.06.0=53

Hence, angle of bis 53.

07

(e) Determining the magnitude of a→ +b→

Use vector addition law to find the suma+b

a+b=6.0+4.0i+8.0+-3.0j=10i+5j

Magnitude ofa+b is calculated as,

a+b=102+5.02=11.0

Hence,magnitude ofrole="math" localid="1656946159137" a+b is 11m .

08

(f) Determining the angle of a→ +b→

Angle of a+bwith X axis is,

role="math" localid="1656946653705" =tan-15.010.0=27

Hence, angle of a+bis27.

09

(g) Determining the magnitude of b→-a→

Use vector subtraction law to find the b-a

b-a=6.0-4.0i+8.0+3.0j=2.0i+11.0j

The magnitude can be found as,

role="math" localid="1656946628062" b-a=22+112=11

Hence, magnitude of b-a is 11m .

10

(h) Determining the angle of b→-a→

The angle ofb-a with X axis is,

=tan-111.02.0=80

Hence,angle of b-ais80 .

11

(i) Determining the magnitude of a→ -b→

a-b=4.0-6.0i+-3.0-8.0j=-2.0i+-11jMagnitutedofa-bis,a-b=-22+-11j=11.0Hence,magnitudeofa-bis11m.

12

(j) Determining the angle of a→ -b→

Angle of a-bwith X axis is,

=tan-111.02.0=80

Hence, angle of is 80.

13

(k) Determining the angle between b→ -a→  and a→ -b→

Since, this vector lies in Quadrant III, its angle with positive X axis is 800+1800 = 2600.

Since,a-b=-1b-a, they are directed opposite to each other.

Hence, the angle betweenb-aand a-bis 180

Therefore,by using laws of vector algebra, add and subtract the vectors. It is also possible to find the magnitude of vectors and their direction with particular axis.
