Vectors, Vector Addition, Magnitude, Direction
|
|
|
|
|
Any quantity such as force, velocity, or acceleration that has both magnitude (size) and direction is a vector. This worksheet contains problems on vectors and
vector addition. Students are asked to describe vectors using ordered pair notation
and to identify and sketch vectors. |

1) Describe the vector using ordered pair notation. Round your answer to the nearest
tenth.
3) Which vector has a direction of 34° north of west?
6) Vector OA is 60° north of east and has a magnitude 5. Describe Vector OA using
coordinates to the nearest tenth.
10) Find the sum of the pair of vectors. Express the answer in component form.
11) Draw the resultant.
12) John attempts to paddle a canoe across a river 50 m wide. The river flows 4.8
m/s north and John starts paddling 10 m/s west from the east bank.
a. What is John’s resultant speed and direction?
b. How far down river will John reach the opposite bank?
