Vector A has a magnitude of 15 andis pointing at an angle a=62° east of north. VectorB has a magnitude of 24 and ispointing at an angle b=72° south of west. Find themagnitude and direction of A+B(the sum of two vectors is more commonly known as the resultantvector). Magnitude of the resultant vector
What direction is the resultant vector pointing in?
It has no magnitude so thedirection is irrelevant.Due east (along thepositive x-axis) Duenorth (along the positive y-axis)Due west(along the negative x-axis)Due south (alongthe negative y-axis)A northeasterlydirection (first quadrant)A northwesterlydirection (second quadrant)A southwesterlydirection (third quadrant)A southeasterlydirection (fourth quadrant)
