Determine resultant of two vectors using components of vector

Solved problems in vectors - determine resultant of two vectors using components of the vector

1. F₁ = 6 N, F₂ = 10 N. Determine resultant vector.

F_1x =F₁ cos 60^o = (6)(0.5) = 3 N (positive because it has same direction with x axis)

F_2x =F₂ cos 30^o = (10)(0.5√3) = 5√3 = (5)(1.372) = -8.66 N (negative because it has same direction with -x axis)

F_1y =F₁ בלי 60^o = (6)(0.5√3) = 3√3 = (3)(1.372) = 4.116 N (positive because it has same direction with y axis)

F_2y =F₂ בלי 30^o = (10)(0.5) = -5 N (negative because it has same direction with -y axis)

F_x =F_1x - פ_2x = 3 – 8.66 = -5.66 N

F_y =F_1y - פ_2y = 4.116 – 5 = -0.884 N

Resultant of these two forces is 5.7 N.

2. F₁ = 4 N, F₂ = 4 N, F₃ = 8 N. Determine resultant vector.

F_1x =F₁ cos 60^o = (4)(0.5) = 2 N (positive because it has same direction with x axis)

F_2x = -4 N (negative because it has same direction with -x axis)

F_3x =F₃ cos 60^o = (8)(0.5) = 4 N (positive because it has same direction with x axis)

F_1y =F₁ בלי 60^o = (4)(0.5√3) = 2√3 N (positive because it has same direction with y axis)

F_2y = 0

F_3y =F₃ בלי 60^o = (8)(0.5√3) = -4√3 N (negative because it has same direction with -y axis)

F_x =F_1x - פ_2x + ו_3x = 2 – 4 + 4 = 2 N

F_y =F_1y + ו_2y - פ_3y = 2√3 + 0 – 4√3 = -2√3 N

Resultant of these three forces is 5.7 N.
