Question

the following example is given:

vector1 =+(60.0N)i+(103.9N)j

vector2 =+(75.2N)i−(27.4N)j

vector 3=−(100.0N)i+(0.0N)j

vecor net =+(35.2N)i+(76.5N)j

Convert this net force to polar coordinates; that is, find the total vector magnitude and angle.

If three forces, 1 , 2 , and 3 , are in equilibrium, what is the relationship between the sum of the first two forces and the third force? Write your answer as an equation.

 

onsider the vector = −(51.7 N)i + (63.9 N)j

  1. (a)  Convert this value to polar coordinates (magnitude and angle).

  2. (b)  When converting this to polar coordinates, what answer does your calculator give

    you for the angle of the vector? Explain whether this is correct or not (including the correct angle if applicable).
