Problems 73 through a quarter of a circle of radius 3.70 cm that lies in Figure P3.35 y x 75.0˚ 60.0˚ F 2 = 80.0 N F 1 = 120 N Consider the two vectors A " 3ˆi # 2ˆj and B " # ˆi # 4ˆj. !A % B!, (d) !A # B!, and (e) the directions of A % B and A # B. 32. Consider the three displacement vectors A " (3ˆi # 3ˆj) m, B " (ˆi # 4ˆj) m, and C " (# 2 ˆ i % 5ˆj) m. Use the compo- nent method to determine (a) the magnitude and direc- A particle undergoes the following consecutive displace- 34. In a game of American football, a quarterback takes the ball from the line of scrimmage, runs backward a distance 35. The helicopter view in Fig. P3.35 shows two people pulling on a stubborn mule. Find (a) the single force that is equiv- 33. 31. 36. A novice golfer on the green takes three strokes to sink the ball. The successive displacements are 4.00 m to the north, 37. Use the component method to add the vectors A and B shown in Figure P3.15. Express the resultant A % B in 38. In an assembly operation illustrated in Figure P3.38, a ro- bot moves an object first straight upward and then also to Figure P3.38 39. Vector B has x, y, and z components of 4.00, 6.00, and 3.00 units, respectively. Calculate the magnitude of B and the 40. You are standing on the ground at the origin of a coordi- nate system. An airplane flies over you with constant velocity 3 m. At time t " 0 the airplane is directly above you, so that the 0 " (7.60 ) 10 3 m)ˆj.
