Question

Note: Use principles of physics to solve the problem and then verify your answer using the simulation.

In the simulation above the length and orientation of the blue and yellow vectors can be changed by dragging the tips of the vectors. Given the limits available in the simulation, find the following.
(a) the largest possible length of the resultant (red) vector
.

(b) the smallest possible length of the resultant (red) vector
.
Now set the length of the blue vector to 6.00 and the length of the yellow vector to 5.00.
(c) What is the largest possible length of the resultant (red) vector now?
.

(d) What is the smallest possible length of the resultant (red) vector now?

Explanation / Answer

(c) 10+9= 19

(d) 10-9=1
