Best Answer

That all depends on the angles between the vector and the components.

The only things you can say for sure are:

-- none of the components can be greater than the size of the vector

-- the sum of the squares of the components is equal to the square of the size of the vector

What two components does a vector contain?

A magnitude (size) and a direction.


How do you calculate the size of the resultant force in physics?

You have to learn vector addition. This can be done graphically, or by algebraically by adding components.


What does vector's member size() do?

The vector size() member returns the current size of the vector, in elements.


What is a size of a velocity vector?

The size of the velocity vector is the speed.


A direction a vector is drawn indicates the magnitude of the vector?

No. The size of the size of the vector drawn indicates the magnitude.


What is vector physical?

It is a magnitude that has a size and a direction. You can also express it as having components in different directions; for example, in the x-direction and in the y-direction.


Is the size of the vector is fixed at the time of compilation?

The size of a vector is not fixed at time of compilation as it can be altered by events that can be written into code. For example, a vector can have a new Node pushed to the back when something happens, altering the size of the vector during run-time.


What has size and direction?

A vector.


Does the Vector Velocity change if the angle changes?

Yes. You can consider a vector of being made up of a magnitude (size) and a direction. If any of the two changes, it is no longer the same vector. Alternately, you can also consider a vector (in two dimensions, for simplicity) as being made up of an x-component and a y-component. It is not possible to change the angle without changing at least one of the two components.


What is an opposite vector?

It is a vector with the same magnitude (size) but acting in the opposite direction.


When adding vector in one dimension what could the position of the head of the arrow represent?

An Arrow can be used to represent a vector by having the direction of the arrow indicate the direction of the vector and the size or length of the arrow represent the size of the vector.


How do you implement vector?

import java.util.Vector; public class VectorTest { /** * @param args */ public static void main(String[] args) { //instantiating a vector Vector vct = new Vector(); //Add objects to a vector vct.add("One"); //getting values from the vector String val = (String) vct.get(0); //vector size System.out.println("Vector size is: " + vct.size()); //removing elements from a vector vct.remove(0); } }
