A vector A has a magnitude of 5 units and points in the −y-direction, while a vector B has triple the magnitude of A and points
Harman [31]

Answer:

A+B; 5√5 units, 341.57°

A-B; 5√5 units, 198.43°

B-A; 5√5 units, 18.43°

Explanation:

Given A = 5 units

By vector notation and the axis of A, it is represented as -5j

B = 3 × 5 = 15 units

Using the vector notations and the axis, B is +15i. The following vectors ate taking as the coordinates of A and B

(a) A + B = -5j + 15i

A+B = 15i -5j

|A+B| = √(15)²+(5)²

= 5√5 units

∆ = arctan(5/15) = 18.43°

The angle ∆ is generally used in the diagrams

∆= 18.43°

The direction of A+B is 341.57° based in the condition given (see attachment for diagrams

(b) A - B = -5j -15i

A-B = -15i -5j

|A-B|= √(15)²+(-5)²

|A-B| = √125

|A-B| = 5√5 units

The direction is 180+18.43°= 198.43°

See attachment for diagrams

(c) B-A = 15i -( -5j) = 15i + 5j

|B-A| = 5√5 units

The direction is 18.43°

See attachment for diagram

Calculate the resulting speed of an airplane with an airspeed of 120 km/h pointing due north when it encounters a wind of 90 km/
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The resulting speed of the airplane is 150 Km/h

Explanation:

The airspeed of the plane is 120 Km/h due North. The wind came from West pointing to the East at 90 Km/h

Both speeds are acting in different directions, so they must be added as vectors. Both vectors and the resulting velocity (Vr) are shown in the image below

The magnitude of that velocity can be computed by using Pythagoras's theorem:

Vr^2=120^2+90^2

Vr^2=14400+8100=22500

Vr=\sqrt{22500}=150

The resulting speed of the airplane is 150 Km/h
