Find the resultant of the three vectors ...

Find the resultant of the three vectors shown in figure (2W1).
.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`sqrt(74)` at `alpha=tan^(-1)((5)/(7))`with x-axis


`vec(R)=(5 cos 37^(@)hat(i)+5 sin37 ^(@) hat(j))+3hat(i)+2hat(j)`
`vec(R)=7hat(i)+5hat(j)`
`|vec(R)|=sqrt(7^(2)+5^(2)) " " =sqrt(74)`
`tan alpha =(5)/(7), " " alpha=tan^(-1)((5)/(7)) "from north"`.
