In problems, vectors may be added together by scale diagram or mathematically. Draw in first vector (\(40m\) east – on your drawing this will be \(8cm\) long). Draw second vector at the end of ...

Any vector can be expressed as a sum of a number of other vectors. The vectors which are summed are called the components of the original vector. When you want to add and subtract two dimensional ...

The sum of these two forces can be found using a vector diagram. The two forces are represented ... Draw a parallelogram to scale, in which two adjacent sides each represent a force.
