VECTOR ADDITION USING GRAPHICAL METHOD

ACTIVITY NO.1

Objective: To solve graphically using parallelogram and polygon method when

two or more forces acting on the same point.

Materials: ruler, protractor, graphing paper, pencil.

Procedure:

1. Find the resultant force using parallelogram method

of the drawing shown.
(Scale: 1 cm: 20N)

𝐅𝟏 = 200N
𝐅𝟐 = 120N

35° 40°
 2. Find the resultant force using polygon method of the
forces shown that is acting on the object shown in
the figure. ( Scale: 1 cm : 20N )

𝐅𝟐 = 200N
𝐅𝟑 = 100N

25° 45°
𝐅𝟒 = 300N

𝐅𝟏 = 100N

𝐅𝟓 = 150N
