Tactics Box 3.3 Determining the Components of a Vector

Learning Goal:

To practice Tactics Box 3.3 Determining the component of a vector.

When a vector is decomposed into component vectors and parallel to the coordinate axes, we can describe each component vector with a single number (a scalar) called the component. This Tactics Box describes how to determine the x component and y component of vector , denoted and .

TACTICS BOX 3.3 Determining the components of a vector

1. The absolute value of the x component is the magnitude of the component vector .

2. The sign of is positive if points in the positive x direction; it is negative if points in the negative x direction.

3. The y component is determined similarly.

Part A

What is the magnitude of the component vector shown in the figure?

Express your answer in meters to two significant figures.

ANSWER:

Part B

What is the sign of the y component of vector shown in the figure?

ANSWER:

The following questions will ask you to give both components of vectors using the ordered pairs method. In this method, the x component is written first, followed by a comma, and then the y component. For example, the components of would be written 2.5,3 in ordered pair notation.

The answers below are all integers, so estimate the components to the nearest whole number.

Tactics Box 3.1 Subtracting Vectors

Learning Goal:

To practice Tactics Box 3.1 Subtracting vectors

Vector subtraction has some similarities to the subtraction of two scalar quantities. With numbers, subtraction is the same as the addition of a negative number. For example, is the same as . Similarly,

. We can use the rules for vector addition and the fact that is a vector opposite in direction to to form rules for vector subtraction, as explained in this Tactics Box.

TACTICS BOX 3.1 Subtracting vectors

To subtract from perform these steps:

1. Draw .

± Resolving Vector Components with Trigonometry

Often a vector is specified by a magnitude and a direction; for example, a rope with tension exerts a force of magnitude in a direction 35 north of east. This is a good way to think of vectors; however, to calculate results with vectors, it is best to select a coordinate system and manipulate the components of the vectors in that coordinate system.

Part A

Find the components of the vector with length = 1.00 and angle =20.0 with respect to the x axis as shown.
