Using the method of components, find the resultant of the following concurrent forces. Note: After solving for the Angle of the Resultant, you must then determine the Direction of the Resultant relative to Horizontal (positive x-axis) in a CCW (counter-clockwise direction). Sometimes the Direction of the Resultant may be the same as the Angle of the Resultant. However, you must always calculate both: the Angle of the Resultant (based on the Resultant triangle sketch) and then the Direction of the Resultant based on Horizontal (positive x-axis) in a CCW direction from horizontal.
HELP FILLING IN BLANKS IN THE PROCEDURE. Procedure 4: Adding Vectors Graphically If you use a ruler and a protractor to draw a series of vectors to scale, the resultant will run from the beginning of the first vector to the end of the last vector. In the picture below, measure the lengths and angles of vectors A, B and C and record these in the 2nd and 3rd columns on the datasheet. Remember to measure angles CCW from the positive x axis. Using cos and sin, calculate the x and y components of vectors A, B and C and record these in the last two columns on the datasheet. Add the x components in the next-to-last column and the y-components in the last column Use Pythagorean Theorem and ArcTan to calculate the magnitude and direction of R Measure the length and angle of vector R Confirm that these two measurements of R match "Fixing the angle" After you do the "four step method" to add vectors, you sometimes have to "fix the angle".

Vectors Resolve each force vector into its components; enter the result into the cells of the table below. (Use - signs for a negative direction.) Then sum the columns to determine the resultant's x- and y-components. Enter these values into the table with the appropriate + or - sign. Finally determine the magnitude and the direction of the resultant force. Note that inthis context, N stands for 'Newton' (which is a unit of force, like pound), not 'North'.
