1 DISPLACEMENT AND FORCE IN TWO DIMENSIONS Vocabulary Review Write the term that correctly completes the statement. Use each term once. coefficient of kinetic friction equilibrant static friction coefficient of static friction kinetic friction vector resolution components 5 1. To determine the of a vector, a coordinate system must be chosen. 2. The force of depends on the normal force exerted by an object when there is no motion between the two surfaces. 3. The is a force that puts an object into equilibrium. 4. is always less than the maximum value of static friction. 5. The is needed to calculate the force of kinetic friction. 6. Breaking a vector down into its components is called. 7. The is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction. SECTION 1 Vectors In your textbook, read about vectors. For each statement below, write true or rewrite the italicized part to make it true. 1. The representation of a vector has both length and direction. 2. Velocity and speed are both quantities, but only speed is a vector. 3. Mass is not a vector. 4. Force is a vector because it has both magnitude and direction. 5. When you represent a vector on a coordinate system, the tail of the vector is always placed on the origin. 6. If two vectors are represented on a coordinate system and they point in the same direction and have the same length, the vectors are equivalent. 7. When adding two vectors on a graph, you place them tail-to-tail. 1

2 For the following combinations of vectors, draw the resultant vector by connecting the tip of one vector to the tail of the other Circle the letter of the choice that best completes the statement. 12. When adding two vectors that are perpendicular, it is best to use. a. the Pythagorean theorem c. the law of sines b. the law of cosines d. a free-body diagram 13. The law of sines is. a. R 2 A 2 B 2 c. R 2 A 2 B 2 2AB cos b. R A B sin sina sin b d. A Ax Ay 14. If you know three sides of a triangle but do not know any of the angles, you must use the to find one of the angles. a. Pythagorean theorem c. law of sines b. law of cosines d. resultant vector 2

3 Using graph paper, protractor, and ruler, solve the following problems using graphical methods. Check your answer by calculating the resultant vector s direction and length using trigonometry. Show your calculations. 15. A man walks 5.0 m east and then 10.0 m north. What is the direction and length of his total displacement? 16. An airplane is traveling m/s at 35 degrees north of east when a tail wind starts to blow. The velocity of the tail wind is m/s 15 west of north. What are the new direction and speed of the airplane? In your textbook read about vectors. Answer the following questions. Use complete sentences and show your calculations. 17. How is vector resolution the opposite of vector addition? 18. Three small children are pulling a rag doll in different directions, each trying to get the doll from the other two. The x-component of the force exerted by the first child is 5.0 N, and the y-component is 3.0 N. The second child s force is 4.0 N in the x-direction and 2.0 N in the y-direction. The x- and y- directions of the third force are 1.0 N and 8.0 N. What are the components of the net force acting on the rag doll? What is the direction and magnitude of the net force? You may want to draw a free-body diagram to help you solve the problem. The following steps for adding vectors are in scrambled order. In the space provided, write which step is first, second, third, and fourth Move vectors so they are tip-to-tail. Measure the length and direction of resultant vector. Choose a scale and draw the vectors. Draw the resultant vector. 3
