On this page you will find a collection of exercises solved on carriers. It deals with problems of varying difficulty concerning operations with vectors, their graphical representation and their applications in physics, to which we add the step-by-step solution.
Vector Practice 1. Draw the components of each vector in the following diagrams. Then calculate the length of each component. a) b) 23° 2. For each of the following, draw the given vectors tip to tail, draw the resultant vector including angle, then calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector.
This collection of problem sets and problems target student ability to use vector principles and operations, kinematic equations, and associated mathematics to solve physics word problems associated with motion in two dimensions.
1. Label each quantity as being vector or scalar: distance, time, mass, area, energy, impulse, temperature, displacement, volume, speed, acceleration, momentum, work, velocity, force. 2. Sketch the following vectors on a separate piece of paper and draw the resultant: a) C+A. b) D-B.
Practice Problems: Vectors Click here to see the solutions. 1. (easy) Vector A represents 5.0 m of displacement east. If vector B represents 10.0 m of displacement north, find the addition of the two displacements (R). 2. (easy) Determine the x and y components of a displacement whose magnitude is 30.0 m at a 23° angle from the x-axis. 3.
This collection of problem sets and problems target student ability to use vector principles and operations, kinematic equations, and Newton's Laws to solve physics word problems associated with objects moving in two dimensions.
This worksheet will walk you through some basic vector operations. In your textbooks, you will see vectors denoted in boldface (v), but when writing a vector, we denote it by writing an arrow above the letter (~v).
