Consider two displacements, one of magnitude3mand another of magnitude4m. Show how the displacement vectors may be combined to get a resultant displacement of magnitude (a)7m, (b)1m, and (c)5m.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) Resultant vector for part a) is7m

b) Resultant vector for part a) is1m

c) Resultant vector for part a) is5m

Step by step solution

01

To understand the concept

The vectors can be drawn in different directions and using the vector addition method, the resultant vectors for given vectors can be calculated.

Here the resultant vector is shown by,

R鈬赌=A鈬赌+B鈬赌iR=A2+B2ii

Where, A鈬赌and B鈬赌are the components which is given as

A鈬赌=3MandB鈬赌=4m

02

To represent resultant displacement vector of magnitude7 m   


The vectors are in the same direction, so using equation (i), the resultant can be written as,

R1=A+B=3+4=7m

03

To represent resultant displacement vector of magnitude1m   

R2=-3+4=1m

04

To represent resultant displacement vector of magnitude5 m  

Using equation (ii) the resultant can be written as

R3=B2+A2=42+32=25=5m
