How can you find a unit vector in the same direction as the given vector?
Divide the vector by it's length (magnitude).
Two forces F1 1 2 0 and F2 3 6 4 act on a point what is the resultant force?
Simply add the two force vectors together and their sum is the resultant force. (4, 8, 4).
Find the volume of the rectangular solid whose length is 3 width is 7x and height is y Be sure to include units?
Find the volume of the rectangular solid whose length is 3, width is 7x, and height is y. Be sure to include units.
Find the area of a rectangle whose length is 3x 1 and its width is x 2?
I think it's 12x square.
Where to find FREE solutions of Calculus by Thomas Finney 9th edition?
You would have to get the copy from the book publisher. Otherwise it is necessary to purchase the textbook for your uses.
What the magnitude of resultant vector of two equal forces each of magnitude F is?
the resultant magnitude is 2 times the magnitude of F as the two forces are equal, Resultant R= F + F = 2F and the magnitude of 2F is 2F.
If a vector of magnitude 3 is added to a vector of magnitude 4 what can the magnitude of the resultant be?
7
What is the magnitude of the two vectors having a sum of zero?
If their sum (resultant) is 0, then the magnitude of the resultant must be 0.
What is the magnitude of resultant force in case of concurrent force in equilibrium?
The magnitude of the resultant force in the case of the concurrent forces in equilibrium.
How do you calculate magnitude and direction of a resultant vector by parallelogram law?
To find the resultant of 2 vectors, P and Q, let the ray AB represent the vector P. Let AB (not BA) be in the direction of P and let the length of AB represent the magnitude of P. Let BC represent the direction of Q and the length BC represent the magnitude of Q [on the same scale used for P and AB]. Then the straight line AC, which is the diagonal of the parallelogram with sides representing P and Q, is the resultant vector R, with magnitude and direction represented by AC.The vectors P and Q can also be represented as sides AB and AC. In that case you will need to complete the parallelogram and the resultant is represented by the diagonal through A.
If the sum of the two unit vectors is also a unit vector find the magnitude of their difference?
resultant
How do you change the magnitude of the resultant vector between two if the angle between them decreases?
If the angle decreases, the magnitude of the resultant vector increases.
Can the magnitude of resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal of magnitude of either vector?
yes
How can simultaneous vectors be combined to form a resultant vector using pencil and paper?
Start with a point O. Draw a line OA in the direction of the first vector and whose length represents the magnitude of that vector (to some scale). From A, draw the line AB in the direction of the second vector and whose length represents the magnitude of that second vector (to the same scale). Then the direction and length of the straight line OB represent the direction and (to the same scale) the magnitude of the resultant vector.
Can the resultant of two vectors of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either of the vectors?
Magnitude? Yes. Simple answer: think of it as a triangle. Can a triangle have three sides of the same length? Yes. Long answer: there really isn't a long answer. To get the resultant of two vectors, one would add up the components of each vector. While it is impossible to add two vectors of the same magnitude and derive a resultant of the same magnitude AND DIRECTION as one of the vectors, one need only to create a directional difference of exactly 60 degrees between the first two vectors to result in a resultant of like magnitude. Math really is the most perfect language. Vectors are to triangles what optics are to to the study of conics!
How great is the resultant of two equal-magnitude vectors at right angles to each other?
Let two equal magnitude vectors be 'X'.. Then, resultant=1.414X
What should be the angle between two vectors of magnitudes 8 and 8 units so that their resultant has a magnitude of 20 units?
It is not possible. The maximum magnitude is obtained when the vectors are aligned and in this case the resultant has a magnitude which is the sum of the individual vectors. In the given example, the maximum possible magnitude for the resultant is 16 units. In general |a+b| <= |a| + |b| where a, b are vectors and |a| is the magnitude of a
