Will a vector at
To identify: Whether a vector at given angle to horizontal is large or small than vertical and horizontal component. Also, state the amount of greater value.
Answer to Problem 5A
A vector at
It is 1.414 times greater than its components.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The vector is at angle of
Formula used:
The horizontal and vertical components of vector Rat
Calculation:
If a vector makes an angle of
And
From the above calculations, it is clear that vector R is greater than the horizontal and vertical components.
So,
It means the vector which is at
Conclusion:
Therefore, a vector at
