Question

To find the graphical solution when adding vectors, you can draw a(n) ____ from the starting point to the ending point.

Answer 1

Answer:

arrow (which creates the resultant vector)

Explanation:

When you use the graphing technique when adding vectors, you can use the head to tail method to draw the vectors. And from the starting point or the tail of the first vector you drew, you will draw an arrow touching heads with the head of the last vector drawn.

With that, you can use a ruler to measure the resultant vector's magnitude, and use a protractor to measure it's direction.

Below is an example:

Let:

V1 = Vector 1

V2 = Vector 2

R - resultant vector.
