I am trying to find the magnitude of a resultant vector. Do i take inconsideration the negatives when i find the x & y compo
attashe74 [19]
Absolutely !  If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other.  Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.

(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war. 
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)

This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.

Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7m/s2.​ We want
lbvjy [14]

Explanation:

It is given that, Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10 m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7 m/s².

The second equation of kinematics gives the relationship between the height reached and time taken by it.

Here, the ball is droped under the action of gravity. The value of acceleration due to gravity on Mars is positive.

We want to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. So, the formula is :

\Delta x=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

t is time taken by the ball to hit the ground

v_o is initial speed of the ball

So, the correct option is (A).
