Name: A Visually Complicated Vector Addition Problem using Component Vectors

Category: Kinematics

Date Added: 22 May 2014 - 04:43 PM

Submitter: Flipping Physics

Short Description: None Provided

This visually confusing tip-to-tail vector addition problem can be solved just like our previous problems. Give your vectors names, draw a vector diagram, break vectors in to components, redraw the vector diagram, create a data table, add columns and solve using basic trig.

Content Times:

0:14 Reading, visualizing, and translating the problem.

1:13 Drawing the vector diagram.

2:06 Breaking vector C in to its components.

3:22 Redrawing the vector diagram (twice).

4:16 Creating the data table.

4:53 Determining the components of the resultant vector, R.

5:33 Solving for vector R.

7:13 Visualizing the entire problem.

7:36 The Review.
