  1. Physics Review Vectors

  2. Component Vectors The word “component” means a “part” of a system. When dealing with vectors, the word “components” refersto the vector parts that “add up” or constitute a vector. Note well that while any vector may have many component vectors, there are two “special” vectors that that when addedtogether result in the given vector. Horizontal Component The horizontal component of a given vector is that part which acts along the horizontal axis (x-axis). FH FH Vertical ComponentThe vertical component of a given vector is that part which acts along the vertical axis (y-axis). FV FV Click

  3. Together, the horizontal and vertical components make up a vector. REMEMBERAll vectors can berepresented by theirHorizontal and Verticalcomponents. Vertical axis Vector Vertical component Horizontal axis Horizontal component Vector = Horizontal component + Vertical component Click

  4. Remember “North” is “Up” “South” is “Down” “East” is “Right” “West” is “Left” N(Up) (Left)W E(Right) S(Down) Next
