PPT-Graphically representing vectors

STEP Draw your vector diagram Head to tail method Key Scale 2cm 100m Use a protractor to measure your angle from the north or south 15 o Measure your resultant vector with ruler Summarise your resultant vector . Physics. K. Allison. Engagement. If a plane and the wind are blowing in the . opposite . direction, then the plane’s velocity . will . de. crease. .. Today we will learn how we can represent events like this.. define . scalar and vector quantities and . give . examples.. (. b) draw and use a vector triangle to . determine the resultant of two vectors such as displacement, velocity and force.. (c) Use trigonometry to determine the resultant of two vectors.. A . scalar. quantity . can be described by a . single number. , . with some meaningful . unit. 4 oranges. 20 miles. 5 miles/hour. 10 Joules of energy. 9 Volts . Vectors and scalars. A . scalar. quantity . In the case of vectors, we have a special vector known as the . unit vector. Unit Vector. = any vector with a length 1; direction irrelevant . Two special unit vectors we look at the most;. i. = {1, 0}. Is a . number. with units. It can be positive or negative.. Example: distance, mass, speed, Temperature…. Chapter 3: . VECTORS. 3-2 .

Any vector can be resolved into horizontal and vertical components. v. v. x. v. y. A Helicopter is traveling . above a highway at . 29m/s at an angle of 25 degrees with respect to flat ground.. . How fast would a sports car have to travel to stay beneath the helicopter?. GENETIC. . ENGINEERING. Genetic engineering is the manipulation of genetic materials which can be introduced in the host organisms and thus change the phenotype of the host organism.. Matrices. Definition: A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers or symbolic elements. In many applications, the rows of a matrix will represent individuals cases (people, items, plants, animals,...) and columns will represent attributes or characteristics. Motivating Question. : An Airplane flies north with an airspeed of 575 mph. If the wind is blowing 30° north of east at 50 mph, what is the speed of the plane as measured from the ground? What if the wind blew south of west?. Section 9.3. Representing Relations Using Matrices. A relation between finite sets can be represented using a zero-one matrix. . Suppose . R. is a relation from . A. = {. a. 1. , . a. 2. , …, . a. . Vectors. . . . When an object moves along a straight line, its velocity can be determined by a single number that represents both magnitude and direction. (forward if positive and backward if negative.. Objectives:. To describe vectors. To solve problems that involve vector addition. Vector. : .  . Any quantity with magnitude (size) and direction. . Magnitude. : . The . distance. from the initial point to the terminal point.. Vectors, Shmectors. Objectives. 1. Distinguish between a scalar and a vector.. 2. Add and subtract vectors by using the graphical method.. 3. Multiply and divide vectors by scalars.. Vectors, Schmectors.
