Answer :

Answer:

g) p = -5.77                            h) q=5

Explanation:

Diagram for given question is attached below in fig 1

Part (a) (b)

for vector [tex]\vec{a}[/tex]

θ = 0°

          [tex]a_{x} = 3 cos (0)\\a_{x} = 3\\a_{y} = 3 sin (0)\\a_{y} = 0[/tex]

Part (c) (d)

for vector [tex]\vec{b}[/tex]

θ = 30°

      [tex]b_{x} = 4 cos (30)\\b_{x} = 3.46\\b_{y} = 4 sin (30)\\b_{y} = 2[/tex]

Part (e) (f)

for vector [tex]\vec{c}[/tex]

θ = 90°

    [tex]c_{x} = 10 cos (90)\\c_{x} = 0\\c_{y} = 10 sin (90)\\c_{y} = 10[/tex]

Part (g) (h)

                       [tex]\vec{c} = p\vec{a} + q\vec{b}[/tex]

[tex]c =c_{x} \hat{i} + c_{y}\hat{j}\\as a_{y} =0\\c_{x} \hat{i} + c_{y}\hat{j} = pa_{x} \hat{i} +q(b_{x} \hat{i}  +b_{y} \hat{j} )\\c_{x} \hat{i}  = pa_{x} \hat{i} +qb_{x} \hat{i}\\c_{y}\hat{j}  =qb_{y}\hat{j}[/tex]

                  [tex]q=\frac{c_{y}}{b_{y}} \\q=\frac{10}{2}\\q=5[/tex]

[tex]c_{x} \hat{i}  = pa_{x} \hat{i} +qb_{x} \hat{i}\\0 = p(3) + (5)(3.46)\\p = -5.77[/tex]

Three vectors in Fig 3.33 have magnitude and angle (direction) has the value of component as,

  • (a) The x component of vector a is 3 m.
  • (b) The y component of vector a is 0 m.
  • (c) The x component of vector b is 3.46 m.
  • (d) The y component of vector b is 2 m.
  • (e) The x component of vector c is 0.
  • (if) The y component of of vector c is 10 m.
  • (g) The value of p is -577 m.
  • (h) The value of q is 5 m.

What is vector components?

A vector components is the quantity which has both the magnitude and the direction.

Given infroamtion-

The image of the three vectors is attached below.

(a) the x component vector a and-

The x component from the figure can be given as,

aₓ=(a)cos(0)=a

aₓ=3 m

Thus x component vector a is 3 meters.

  • (b) The y component of a-

The y component from the figure can be given as,

[tex]a_y[/tex]=(a)sin(0)=0

[tex]a_y[/tex]=0

Thus y component vector a is 0 meters.

  • (c) The x component vector b

The x component of vector b from the figure can be given as,

bₓ=b*cos(30)=4*cos(30)

bₓ=3.46 m

Thus x component vector b is 3.46 meters.

  • (d) the y component of vector b-The y component of vector b from the figure can be given as,

b(y)=b*sin(30)=4*sin(30)

b(y)=2 m

Thus y component vector b is 2 meters.

  • (e) the x component of vector c-

The x component of vector c from the figure can be given as,

cₓ=(c)*cos(90)=10*cos(30)

cₓ=0 m

Thus x component vector c is 0 meters.

  • (if) the y component of vector c-

The y component from the figure can be given as,

[tex]c_y[/tex]=(c)*sin(90)=10*1

[tex]c_y[/tex]=10

Thus y component vector c is 10 meters.

  • g), h) Value of p and q-

[tex]\vec c=p\vec a +q\vec b[\tex]

[tex]c_x\hat i+c_y\hat j=p(a_x\hat i+b_y\hat j)+q(b_x\hat i+b_y\hat j)[\tex]

Put the values we get two equation as,

-5=3*p+3.46*q

8.66=2*q

Solving these equation we get,

p=-6.67

q=4.33

Hence,

  • (a) The x component of vector a is 3 m.
  • (b) The y component of vector a is 0 m.
  • (c) The x component of vector b is 3.46 m.
  • (d) The y component of vector b is 2 m.
  • (e) The x component of vector c is 0.
  • (if) The y component of of vector c is 10 m.
  • (g) The value of p is -577 m.
  • (h) The value of q is 5 m.
