Question
Vector A has a magnitude of 41 and is pointing at an angle a=62° east of north. Vector B has a magnitude of 37 and is pointing at an angle b=33° south of west. Find the magnitude and direction of A+B (the sum of two vectors is more commonly known as the resultant vector).Magnitude of the resultant vector ________?
What direction is the resultant vector pointing in?
It has no magnitude so the direction is irrelevant.
Due east (along the positive x-axis)
Due north (along the positive y-axis)
Due west (along the negative x-axis)
Due south (along the negative y-axis)
A northeasterly direction (first quadrant)
A northwesterly direction (second quadrant)
A southwesterly direction (third quadrant)
A southeasterly direction (fourth quadrant)
What is the angle between the resultant vector and the horizontal? If the magnitude of the resultant is zero, then enter 'none'.
_________°
