Juanito is pulling a cart with 15.00-N force due 20.00 degrees North of West. Find a vector of equal length perpendicular to the force exerted by Juanito . Let the force exerted by Juanito be F, and the force perpendicular to that force be Fp. The vector F, makes an angle of degrees with respect to the positive x-axis. Subtracting 90 degrees from that standard angle, Fp should be due degrees north of east. Since we know that the magnitude of Fp is equal to that of Fjand we also know the angle of Fp, we can calculate the components of F p which results to: Fp=

Borsalino wants to buy some ice cream in the nearest convenience store. He has to walk 5.3 meters, 12 degrees in the north of east direction to reach the doorstep of the convenience store. He then enters the store and walks straight to cashier, two meters due northwest. Let Á be the displacement vector with a magnitude of 5.3 meters directed 12 degrees in the north of east direction, and let B be the displacement vector with a magnitude of two meters due northwest. Express vectors Á and B in unit vector component form. À = + B - + The net displacement is given by the vector sum: :Ř=À +B.
