1
Q
vector properties
4 of them
A
- magnitude
- direction
- point of application
- line of application
2
Q
what is vector resolution
A
- broken down into two components
- the component vectors can be added to find orginal resultant vector
3
Q
vector combination
A
-add vectors together to get resultant vector
4
Q
how to find x and y comps of the vector
A
- x: (F)(cos*angle)
- y: (F)(sin*angle)
5
Q
how to find resultant vector one x and y comps are found for each vector
A
- add all x comps together and y comps together
- square root of x and y comps square
- tan^-1(y/x) to find angle
