Question

1) Find addition of the given vectors:
V1 = 2 m/s 30° N of E
V2 = 3 m/s 40° N of W

Answer 1

Unit vectors along N, S, E, W are i , -i , j, -j .

To find unit vector along :

V1 = 2 m/s 30° N of E

V2 = 3 m/s 40° N of W

a )

`v_1=2(cos\ 30^oi+ sin\ 30^oj)\\\\v_1=2((√(3))/(2)i+(1)/(2)j)\\\\v_1=√(3)i+j`

b )

`v_2=3(cos\ 40^oi+ sin\ 40^oj)\\\\v_2=3(0.77i+0.64j)\\\\v_2=2.31i+1.92j`

Hence, this is the required solution.
