1:44 LTE O A instruction.gwinnett.k12.ga.us Adding Vectors Practice Name Per Solve the following vector problems by doing the following: 1- SKETCH THE VECTORS OUT AS MUCH TO SCALE AS POSSIBLE 2- Make an X and Y chart to organize the vectors. Make all vectors that go UP or to the RIGHT POSITIVE. Make all the vectors that go DOWN or to the LEFT NEGATIVE! 3- Derive TWO final vectors from your chart: One Horizontal 'X' vector and One vertical 'Y' vector. 4- Solve for a Resultant!!! 5- Remember that DISTANCE is used to determine SPEED. It is all the vectors added together!! 6- Remember that DISPLACEMENT is used to determine VELOCITY. It is your RESULTANT vector!!!

Vectors: a.) Can you find two vectors with different lengths that have a vector sum of zero?Explain your answer in detail. b.) Can the magnitude of an object’s displacement be larger than the distance it hastraveled? What is the condition for them being equal. Explain your answers in detail.
Is the following statement true or false? Explain. If the wind is blowing from the southwest, then the bearing for the wind vector is 225°. Choose the correct answer below. O A. The statement is true because a wind blowing from the southwest would cause the air to travel northeast, which would be a vector represented by a 225° angle. B. The statement is false because a wind blowing from the southwest would cause the air to travel northeast, which would be a vector represented by a 45° angle. C. The statement is false because southwest would be represented on the unit circle by a vector pointing into the middle of quadrant 1, which is a 45° angle. D. The statement is true because southwest would be represented on the unit circle by a vector pointing into the middle of quadrant 3, which is a 225° angle.
Stuck need help! The class I'm taking is physics for scientists and engineers! Problem is attached. please view attachment before answering. Really struggling with this concept. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Please detail explain so I can fully understand how to solve. Thank you so much.
You first walk 10 meters at an angle of 30 degrees East of North. Then,you walk 15 meters at an angle of 45 degrees South of East. Assume that East is +x and North is+y, and assume you started at the origin (0,0). A. Make a graph with x- and y-axes and draw your path on that graph (to scale, or at least asclose as you can get). Start the first vector at the origin, and the second vector at the tip ofthe first vector. Then, draw the resultant vector (their sum). B. Break each part of the walk into their x- and y-components and then sum them to get thex- and y-components of the resultant vector. Make sure to include units and unit vectors. C. What is your displacement from where you originally started? D. If the whole walk took 40 seconds, then what was your average velocity
