**Vector Addition - Components**

1. Determine the resultants for each of the following by adding the vectors using the "component method."

(a) \( d_1 = 45.0 \, \text{m at} \, 30.0^\circ \, \text{N of W} \)

\( d_2 = 25.0 \, \text{m at} \, 60.0^\circ \, \text{N of E} \)

Expert Solution

Step 1

The given vectors can be resolved in horizontal and vertical direction. Let's consider east direction as positive x-axis, the west direction as negative x-axis and north direction as positive y-axis. So, resolving the given vectors along x and y direction.
