Two position vectors lie in a plane. The first, vector r.. points at an angle of 20° below the positive x-axis and has a magnitude of 43.0 m. The second, vector re, points at an angle of 55.0° above the positive x-axis and has a magnitude of 75 m. (a) Choose the diagram below that is correct a graphical representation of ra + rB- +y +y +y +y +X ++ (b) What is the magnitude, in meters, and what is the direction of vector re, in degrees? Give the direction as an angle measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. magnitude direction (counterclockwise from the +x-axis) 1
