Example 10 (Cont.): Find i,j for three<br />

vectors: A = 5 m,0 0 ; B = 2.1 m, 20<br />

90 0 .<br />

= 2.1 m, 20 0 ; C = 0.5 m,<br />

X-component (i)(<br />

Y-component (j)(<br />

A x<br />

= + 5.00 m A y<br />

= 0<br />

B x<br />

= +1.97 m B y<br />

= +0.718 m<br />

C x<br />

= 0 C y<br />

= + 0.50 m<br />

4. Add vectors to<br />

get resultant R<br />

in i,j notation.<br />

A = 5.00 i + 0 j<br />

B = 1.97 i + 0.718 j<br />

C = 0 i + 0.50 j<br />

R = 6.97 i + 1.22 j
