A) Vector A
The x-component of a vector can be found by using the formula
where
v is the magnitude of the vector
is the angle between the x-axis and the direction of the vector
- Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so . So its x-component is
- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is (negative since it is below the x-axis), so the x-component is
So, vector A has the greater x component.
B) Vector B
Instead, the y-component of a vector can be found by using the formula
Here we have
- Vector B has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so . So its y-component is
- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is , so the y-component is
where the negative sign means the direction is along negative y:
So, vector B has the greater y component.
Answer:
12 units
Explanation:
This problem can be solved if we take into account the equation for a sphere
where we took that the radius is 13 units. If we take z=5 and we replace this value in the equation of the sphere we have
where we have taken x2 +y2 because if the equation of a circunference.
In this case the intersection is made when we take z=5, for this value the sphere and the plane coincides in values.
Hence, the radius is 12 units
