Question

First, draw a diagram that shows the resultant of thefollowing vectors. Use rough scaling only. Then add the vectorsanalytically. A--> = 50 N at 15degrees clockwise from +x, B--> =100N at 40degrees counterclockwise from +x, and C--> = 75 N inthe -x direction. Show all your work. Thanks :) the resultant I have is crazy weird...maybe you all couldhelp. First, draw a diagram that shows the resultant of thefollowing vectors. Use rough scaling only.

Explanation / Answer

Total x vector =   50cos15   + 100 cos40   -75 =   49.90 . Total y vector = - 50 sin15 +  100 sin40   =    51.34 .    magnitude of total vector = (49.902 + 51.342)1/2 =     71.59 . direction:      tan = 51.34/ 49.90      =   45.81counterclockwise from x axis
