Vector addition

1. Two forces A and B are acting on an object. A is 3.0 N directed north and B is 4.0N, 30° north of
east. Find the resultant force acting on the object using the parallelogram method.

2. Andre was observing an ant that crawled along a tabletop. With a piece of chalk, he followed its
path. He determined the ant’s displacement by using a ruler and protractor. The displacements
were as follows: 2cm east; 3.5 cm, 32° north of east; 2.3 cm, 22° west of north. Draw the
resultant vector using the polygon method.

3. Two forces, one twice as great as the other, have a resultant of 60N directed north. Find the
forces (a) if they are acting in the same direction and (b) if they are oppositely directed.
4. A particle is being pulled by two forces: F 1=3.0 N, east and F2=4.0 N, south. Find the resultant
force acting on the particle.
