In the next sets, you are given the magnitude and one component. There is an ambiguity in determining the vector, because you can only determine the absolute value of the other component and not its sign; therefore, there are two possibilities. In these tables, you must enter the absolute value of the component and provide two angles for the vector, the first one assuming the other component is positive and the other assuming the component is negative. You must also provide two angles for the antiparallel vector in the same order.

The route followed by a hiker consists of three displacement vectors A,B ,c Cand . Vector A is along a measured trail and is 1550 m in a direction 25.0° north of east. Vector B is not along a measured trail, but the hiker uses a compass and knows that the direction is 41.0° east of south. Similarly, the direction of vector C is 10.0° north of west. The hiker ends up back where she started, so the resultant displacement is zero, or A+ B+ C = 0. Find the magnitudes of vector B and vector C .
The vector difference between Vectors A and B is 223.606 N, 26.57° N of W or 223 606 N, 63.43° NW. If the first vector is 100N, due North, what is the real magnitude and direction of Vector A?
An object moves in an x-y plane generating three displacements (50.0 m, 60.0° west of north; 20.0 m, 30.0° east of north; 10.0 m east). a) Draw vector A in its reference frame and determine its x component and its y component. Express vector A in Cartesian form. b) Draw vector B in its reference frame and determine its x component and its y component. Express vector B in Cartesian form. c) Draw vector C in its reference frame and determine its x component and its y component. Express vector C in Cartesian form. d) Determine the resulting vector Cartesian Reform. In addition, determine its magnitude and its angle. Note: As can be seen in the diagram, the resulting vector is in the first quadrant, so the signs of its components and its angle have to be those corresponding to a vector in the first guadrant. wwwM wmww o w y (norte) 10.0 m 20.0 m <30.0° 50.0 m 60.0° (oeste) x (este)
Suppose a person walks so that their displacement is represented by a vector that has a magnitude of 52m (vector A). The direction of that initial displacement is 31 degrees north of east. After that, the person then walks 15 m due west (vector B). Use trig to calculate the east and north components of the first displacement, vector A.
