University Physics: Mechanics Ch3. VECTOR QUANTITIES Lecture 3 Dr.-Ing. Erwin Sitompul

3/14 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Vectors and Scalars  A displacement vector represents the change of position.  Both magnitude and direction are needed to fully specify a displacement vector.  The displacement vector, however, tells nothing about the actual path.  A vector quantity has magnitude as well as direction.  Some physical quantities that are vector quantities are displacement, velocity, and acceleration.  A scalar quantity has only magnitude.  Some physical quantities that are scalar quantities are temperature, pressure, energy, mass, and time.

3/15 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Adding Vectors Geometrically  Suppose that a particle moves from A to B and then later from B to C.  The overall displacement (no matter what its actual path) can be represented with two successive displacement vectors, AB and BC.  The net displacement of these two displacements is a single displacement from A to C.  AC is called the vector sum (or resultant) of the vectors AB and BC.  The vectors are now redrawn and relabeled, with an italic symbol and an arrow over it.  For handwriting, a plain symbol and an arrow is enough, such as a, b, s. → → →

3/16 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Adding Vectors Geometrically  Two vectors can be added in either order.  Three vectors can be grouped in any way as they are added.

3/17 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Adding Vectors Geometrically  The vector –b is a vector with the same magnitude as b but the opposite direction. Adding the two vectors would yield  Subtracting b can be done by adding –b. →→ →→

3/18 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics  Adding vectors geometrically can be tedious.  An easier technique involves algebra and requires that the vectors be placed on a rectangular coordinate system.  For two-dimensional vectors, the x and y axes are usually drawn in the drawing plane.  A component of a vector is the projection of the vector on an axis. Components of Vectors

3/19 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics  Note, that the angle θ is the angle that the vector makes with the positive direction of the x axis.  The calculation of θ is done in counterclockwise directions. What is the value of θ on the figure above? θ = ° or –35.54° Components of Vectors

How far east and north is the airplane from the airport when sighted? Solution: Thus, the airplane is km east and km north of the airport.

3/24 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Unit Vectors  A unit vector is a vector that has a magnitude of exactly 1 and points in a particular direction.  The unit vectors in the positive directions of the x, y, and z axes are labeled i, j, and k.  Unit vectors are very useful for expressing other vectors: ^^^

3/25 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Adding Vectors Geometrically  Vectors can be added geometrically by subsequently linking the head of one vector with the tail of the other vector.  The addition result is the vector that goes from the tail of the first vector to the head of the last vector.

3/26 Erwin SitompulUniversity Physics: Mechanics Adding Vectors by Components  Another way to add vectors is to combine their components axis by axis.
