Compute the x- and y-components of the vectors A⇶Ä,B⇶Ä, C⇶Äand D⇶Äin Fig. E1.24.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The x and the y components of vector A, B, C and D are (0,-8) ; (7.5 , 13); (-10.88,-5.07) and (-7.99, 6.02) respectively ,

Step by step solution

01

Representation of vector 

Here,

Vector are easily defined with the help of there magnitude and there angle withthe x and the y axes.

Here in this case there are four vectors given

For this vector we will take the use of magnitude given as well as the angle with the x axis and the y axis.

02

Conversion of mile into kilometer

For the direction shown in the graph

A⇶Ä=(0,-8) in meters

As here the vector is exactly on the y axis so the magnitude with respect to y axis will be zero.

For vector B the angle of that vector made with the x axis will be 90 – 30

That is the angle made will be 60

Hence the components of the b vector will be magnitude multiplied by the cos angle and sin angle made with respect to x axis

B⇶Ä=15cos60+15sin60

By putting the value of cos 60 = ½ and sin 60 = 3/2

We get

B⇶Ä=(7.5 , 13) in meters

Similarly for vector C
