Resolving Vector

the x component of a vector is also known as the

• hypotenuse

• adjacent

• reflection

• opposite

The portion of a vector that is oriented vertically

• resultant

• x-component

• y-component

• angle of theta

What is the horizontal component of this vector?

• +3

• +4

• 5

• -3

What is the vertical component of this vector?

• -10

• +5

• +10

• + 11.5

What vector gives the sum of these two vectors? (hint: think of the arrow that would be drawn from start to finish)

Does the left or right vector have a larger horizontal component?

• Left

• Right

• Neither

Which represents the CORRECT formula for finding the sum of the horizontal components ? ( conventional graphing)

• Σx= ^-5 units + ⁺ 10 units = ⁺5 units

• Σx = ⁺5 units + ⁺ 10 units = ⁺15 units
