1. ANALYTICAL METHOD OF ADDING VECTORS Solve the same problem as PART 1 but this time analytically. START with the values below. DO NOT USE VALUES FROM PART 1. Suppose you walk 18.0 m straight west and then 25.0 m straight north. Let the positive x-axis coincide with east and the positive y-axis be oriented in the northern direction. (b) How far are you from your starting point? If you represent the two legs of the walk as vector displacements A and B, then this problem asks you to find their sum R=A+B. Enter to 3 significant figures R= m (c) What is the direction (angle) of a line connecting your starting point to your final position with respect to east (the positive x-axis)? Enter to 3 significant figures 8 = degrees Sense-making: Is there an upper bound or a maximum value the resultant can have? Is your answer consistent with this upper bound?

A man pushing a mop across a floor causes it to undergo two displacements. The first has a magnitude of positive x axis. The resultant displacement has a magnitude of R = 138 cm and is directed at an angle of direction of the second displacement. Step 1 The diagram suggests that d, is larger than either of the other vectors and is in a fourth-quadrant direction. 2 d₁ Then d₂ = R-d₁ 1 Substituting, d 2 y Step 2 We will use the component method for a precise answer. We already know the resultant displacement, so the algebra of solving a vector equation will guide us to do a subtraction. Step 3 The resultant displacement of the mop is R = ď₁ + 1 2 = = 19₂ R (138 138 cm at 33.0°) - 157 Step 4 The meaning of the negative sign reverses the direction of the second vector so we can rewrite the previous equation as (138 cm at 33.0°) + (157 cm at 33 X The response you submitted has the wrong sign.º), which, in components, is d₂ = [138 cos 33 + 138 sin 125 Your response..differs from the correct…
