Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Vectors: Problem 46

Vector \(\vec{a}\) has a magnitude of 5.0 m and is directed east. Vector \(\vec{b}\) has a magnitude of 4.0 m and is directed 35Β° west of due north. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of \(\vec{a} + \vec{b}\)? What are (c) the magnitude and (d) the direction of \(\vec{a} - \vec{b}\)? (e) Draw a vector diagram for each combination.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 5.0 m, 4.0 m
