  6. 3-1 Vectors and Scalars A vector has magnitude as well as direction. Some vector quantities: displacement, velocity, force, momentum A scalar has only a magnitude. Some scalar quantities: mass, time, temperature

  7. 3-2 Addition of Vectors—Graphical Methods For vectors in one dimension, simple addition and subtraction are all that is needed. You do need to be careful about the signs, as the figure indicates.

  8. 3-2 Addition of Vectors—Graphical Methods If the motion is in two dimensions, the situation is somewhat more complicated. Here, the actual travel paths are at right angles to one another; we can find the displacement by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

  9. 3-2 Addition of Vectors—Graphical Methods Adding the vectors in the opposite order gives the same result:

  10. 3-2 Addition of Vectors—Graphical Methods Even if the vectors are not at right angles, they can be added graphically by using the tail-to-tip method.

  11. 3-2 Addition of Vectors—Graphical Methods The parallelogram method may also be used; here again the vectors must be tail-to-tip.

  12. 3-3 Subtraction of Vectors, and Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar In order to subtract vectors, we define the negative of a vector, which has the same magnitude but points in the opposite direction. Then we add the negative vector.

  13. 3-3 Subtraction of Vectors, and Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar A vector can be multiplied by a scalarc; the result is a vector c that has the same direction but a magnitudecV. If c is negative, the resultant vector points in the opposite direction.

  14. Adding & Subtracting Vectors • Vectors can be added or subtracted from each other graphically. • Each vector is represented by an arrow with a length that is proportional to the magnitude of the vector. • Each vector has a direction associated with it. • When two or more vectors are added or subtracted, the answer is called the resultant. • A resultant that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction is also known as an equilibrant.

  15. 5 m 3 m = 4 m Adding Vectors using the Pythagorean Theorem If the vectors occur such that they are perpendicular to one another, the Pythagorean theorem may be used to determine the resultant. + 3 m 4 m A2 + B2 = C2 (4m)2 + (3m)2 = (5m)2 When adding vectors, place the tail of the second vector at the tip of the first vector.

  16. Adding & Subtracting Vectors If the vectors occur in a single dimension, just add or subtract them. = + 7 m 3 m 4 m 7 m + = - 7 m 3 m 4 m 7 m • When adding vectors, place the tail of the second vector at the tip of the first vector. • When subtracting vectors, invert the second one before placing its tail at the tip of the first vector.

  17.  = 80º  7 m 5 m = + 5 m 7 m C Law of Cosines If the angle between the two vectors is more or less than 90º, then the Law of Cosines can be used to determine the resultant vector. C2 = A2 + B2 – 2ABCos  C2 = (7m)2 + (5m)2 – 2(7m)(5m)Cos 80º C = 7.9 m

  18. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components Any vector can be expressed as the sum of two other vectors, which are called its components. Usually the other vectors are chosen so that they are perpendicular to each other.

  19. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components Remember: soh cah toa If the components are perpendicular, they can be found using trigonometric functions.

  20. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components The components are effectively one-dimensional, so they can be added arithmetically.

  21. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components • Adding vectors: • Draw a diagram; add the vectors graphically. • Choosex and y axes. • Resolve each vector into x and ycomponents. • Calculate each component using sines and cosines. • Add the components in each direction. • To find the length and direction of the vector, use: . and

  22. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components Example 3-2: Mail carrier’s displacement. A rural mail carrier leaves the post office and drives 22.0 km in a northerly direction. She then drives in a direction 60.0° south of east for 47.0 km. What is her displacement from the post office?

  23. 3-4 Adding Vectors by Components Example 3-3: Three short trips. An airplane trip involves three legs, with two stopovers. The first leg is due east for 620 km; the second leg is southeast (45°) for 440 km; and the third leg is at 53° south of west, for 550 km, as shown. What is the plane’s total displacement?

  24. Vector vs. Scalar 770 m 270 m 670 m 868 m dTotal = 1,710 m d = 868 m The resultant will always be less than or equal to the scalar value.

  27. P Resultant How to Solve: 1. Add vectors by placing them tip to tail. or P P 2. Draw the resultant. This method is also known as the Parallelogram Method. P

  28. North  = 30° East Example 2: • A bus travels 23 km on a straight road that is 30° North of East. What are the component vectors for its displacement? d = 23 km dx= d cos  dx= (23 km)(cos 30°) dx= 19.9 km dy= d sin  dy= (23 km)(sin 30°) dy= 11.5 km y d dy dx x

  29. y cy c b by a ay cx ax bx x Algebraic Addition • In the event that there is more than one vector, the x-components can be added together, as can the y-components to determine the resultant vector. R Rx = ax + bx + cx Ry = ay + by + cy R = Rx + Ry

  30. P vector scalar vector Properties of Vectors • A vector can be moved anywhere in a plane as long as the magnitude and direction are not changed. • Two vectors are equal if they have the same magnitude and direction. • Vectors are concurrentwhen they act on a point simultaneously. • A vector multiplied by a scalar will result in a vector with the same direction. F = ma

  31. Properties of Vectors (cont.) • Two or more vectors can be added together to form a resultant. The resultant is a single vector that replaces the other vectors. • The maximum value for a resultant vector occurs when the angle between them is 0°. • The minimum value for a resultant vector occurs when the angle between the two vectors is 180°. • The equilibrant is a vector with the same magnitude but opposite in direction to the resultant vector.

  32. Properties of Vectors (cont.) = + 7 m 3 m 4 m 180° = + 1 m 3 m 4 m -R R

  33. Key Ideas • Vector: Magnitude and Direction • Scalar: Magnitude only • When drawing vectors: • Scale them for magnitude. • Maintain the proper direction. • Vectors can be analyzed graphically or by using coordinates.

  36. Draw these and find the following by trig: • Example 7: • 5 m/sec at 270 degrees • 10m/sec at 60 degrees • 15m/sec at 120 degrees • Then graph the resultant and equilibrant • Example 8: • 5 m/sec at 0 degrees • 5 m/sec at 135 degrees • 10 m/sec at 270 degrees • Then graph the resultant and equilibrant

  37. Draw these and find the following by trig: Example 9: 5 m/sec at 40 degrees 10m/sec at 50 degrees 15m/sec at 60 degrees Then graph the resultant and equilibrant Example 10: 5 m/sec at 60 degrees 5 m/sec at 120 degrees 10 m/sec at 270 degrees Then graph the resultant and equilibrant
