1 Force Vectors

2 Vectors Vector Quantities Have both a magnitude and direction Examples: Position, force, moment Vector Notation Vectors are given a variable, such as A or B Handwritten notation usually includes an arrow, such as A or B

3 Illustrating Vectors Vectors are represented by arrows. Include magnitude, direction, and sense. Magnitude: The length of the line segment Magnitude = X

4 Illustrating Vectors Vectors are represented by arrows. Include magnitude, direction, and sense Direction: The angle between a reference axis and the arrow s line of action. Direction = 30 counterclockwise from the positive X axis. 30 +X

5 Illustrating Vectors Vectors are represented by arrows Include magnitude, direction, and sense Sense: Indicated by the direction of the tip of the arrow. Sense = Upward and to the right. 30 +X

6 Sense +y (up) +y (up) -x (left) -y (down) (0,0) +x (right) -y (down) -x (left) +x (right)

7 Trigonometry Review Right Triangle A triangle with a 90 angle. Sum of all interior angles = 180 Pythagorean Theorem: A 2 + B 2 = C 2 Opposite Side (opp) 90 Adjacent Side (adj)

8 Trigonometry Review Trigonometric Functions soh cah toa sin θ = opp / hyp cos θ = adj / hyp tan θ = opp / adj Opposite Side (opp) 90 Adjacent Side (adj)
