QUESTIONS What symbol is used to denote a vector? Why? How do you add vectors graphically? You travel 3 km east then 4 km south, what is the magnitude of your displacement? A mass experiences a force vector with components 30 N to the right, 40 N down. Explain how to determine the magnitude and direction (angle) of the force vector. 5. The joule is equivalent to Justify your answer. (a) a newton-meter. (b) a kilogram-meter. (c) a watt. (d) a candela. (e) an erg. 7. What is the distinction between mass and weight? Include units. 8. Why are the following different? Explain how each should be handled mathematically. ii. 9. What are the vertical and horizontal components of a velocity of 100 m/s at a 30 degree angle above the horizon? 10. What are the vertical and horizontal components of a rope experiencing 100N of tension at an angle 30 degrees to the right of the vertical? 1. 2. 3. 4.
