5.86 cm( 5.9 cm)

20. What are the x- and y-scalar components of the force vector F, which is 35.0 N oriented at 216.0? Show your work.
Fx 28.31 N ( 28.3 N) left Fy 20.57 N ( 20.6 N) down

21. Each of the following vectors has been written in terms of the designated scalar components. Sketch each resultant vector, give its magnitude, and calculate the reference angle, , and the vector angle, . An example problem is worked out to show what is expected in your written work. Example: Ax = 1.0 N; Ay = 2.0 N a. Ax = 3.0 m; Ay = 3.0 m
A 4.2 m at 315.0

b. Bx = 2.00 N; By = 8.00 N
B 8.25 N at 104.0

c. CE-W = 12.0 m/s; CN-S = 5.0 m/s


C 13.0 m/s at 247.4T

d. Dx = 0.0 m/s2; Dy = 6.0 m/s2


D 6.0 m/s2 at 90.0

22. Resolve each vector into its component vectors. a.9.65m( 9.7m)
2.58 m ( 2.6 m) b. -1.5 m 2.59 m ( 2.6m) c. = 0.0 m -5. 0 m

d. 4.82 m (- 4.8 m)
5.74 m ( 5.7m)

23. Use the components of L, M, N, and O in the previous problem to determine the following vectors: a. L + M c. N + O e. M O b. M + N d. L N f. L + M + N + O
a. L + M: 9.7 m at 32.4 b. M + N: 2.8 m at 238.1 M+N c. N + O: 11.8 m at 245.8 d. L N: 12.3 m at 38.1 e. M O 9.0 m at 68.3 f. L + M + N + O: 6.5 m at 300.9

24. A midfielder on the soccer team kicks the ball 20.0 m NW to his striker, who immediately kicks it 10.0 m NE into the goal. Describe the compass direction and distance that the midfielder would have had to kick the ball in order to place it in exactly the same point in the goal. Show your work.
Let the kick by the midfielder be M and the kick by the striker be S. The direct kick is vector M + S. 22.4 m at 341.6T

25. Are the following properties true for vector addition? Support your answers with illustrative sketches. For each true relationship, give the name of the property of equality represented by the operation.

26. A common housefly (Musca domestica) in a top corner of a 7.0 m 10.0 m 3.5 m room walks to the lowest opposite corner of the room. a. What will its net displacement be after its epic trip? b. If the fly walks only along the edges of the room, what is the shortest distance it must walk? c. If it is not restricted to the edges, what is the distance of the most direct route to reach its destination? d. Name the surfaces that the fly crosses in part c.
a. The net displacement is the diagonal of the rooms parallelepiped. 12.69 m ( 12.7 m) b. The shortest distance via the edges is the sum of one length, one width, and one height. dedge = 20.5 m c. Compute the diagonal consisting of the ceiling and the end wall. 15.20 m( 15.2 m)
