Add the following two vectors via the component method:
1 answer:
A quantity which have both magnitude and direction is know as vector quantity.
Resultant vector is 6.81 m south east.
Triangle law of vector addition is when two vectors are represented as two sides of the triangle with the order of magnitude and direction, then the third side of the triangle represents the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector.
Since, vector K is 3.0 m north and vector L is 8.6 m southeast
So, angle between vectors K and L is,
90+45 = 135 degree
Resultant vector,
So, Resultant vector R is 6.81 m with direction of southeast.

Answer: the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec
Explanation:
First we calculate the linear velocity of the single sprinkler;
Area of the nozzle = π/4 × d²
given that d = 8mm = 8 × 10⁻³
Area of the nozzle = π/4 × (8 × 10⁻³)²
A = 5.024 × 10⁻⁵ m²
Now total discharge is dived into 4 jets so discharge for single jet will be;
Q_single = Q / n = 0.006 / 4 = 1.5 × 10⁻³ m³/sec
So using continuity equation ;
Q_single = A × V_single
V_single = Q_single/A
we substitute
V_single = (1.5 × 10⁻³) / (5.024 × 10⁻⁵)
V_single = 29.8566 m/s
Now resolving the forces as shown in the second image,
Vt = Vcos30°
Vt = 29.8566 × cos30°
Vt = 25.8565 m/s
Finally we calculate the angular velocity;
Vt = rω
ω_single = Vt / r
from the given diagram, radius is 300mm = 0.3m
so we substitute
ω_single = 25.8565 / 0.3
ω_single = 86.1883 rad/sec
Therefore the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec
