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. 5. If I walk 20 miles North, then 15 miles East, then 10 miles at 35° South of East, What distance have I traveled? What is my displacement? If I travel the entire distance in 4 hours, then what is my average velocity?
