Answer 2

Answer: The next 5 steps are.

step 2: Find the magnitude of vectors.

step 3: Calculate 'x' and 'y' components.

step 4: Sum the above obtained vector components.

step 5: Calculate the magnitude of Resultant Vector.

Step 6: Determine the direction of the resultant vector.

Explanation:

Let the two vectors be 'A' and 'B'.

Let A = $x_{1} \hat{i}+y_{1}\hat{j}+z_{1}\hat{k}$ and B = $x_{2} \hat{i}+y_{2}\hat{j}+z_{2}\hat{k}$

It is given that, when solving a two dimensional, multi-charge problem, is to define the vectors.

So, step 1 is to define the vectors A and B.

In step 2, we find the magnitude of the vectors by,

$|A|=\sqrt{x_1^2+y_1^2+z_1^2}$

$|B|=\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2+z_2^2}$

In step 3, we find the components 'x' and 'y'

Then in step 4, we sum the components. Now we get the Resultant vector (R).

In step 5, Calculate the magnitude of 'R' using the above formula to find magnitude.

In step 6, we determine the direction of 'R'.
