2 3.2 Vectors and Scalars Vectors Quantities which indicate both magnitude and direction Examples: displacement, velocity, acceleration Scalars Quantities which indicate only magnitude Examples: Time, speed, temperature, distance
3 3.2 Vectors and Scalars Arrows are used to represent vectors. The length of the arrow signifies magnitude The head of the arrow signifies direction Sometimes the vectors are represented by bold lettering, such as vector a. Sometimes they are represented with arrows on the top, such as a
4 Vectors Vector: parameters possessing magnitude and direction which add according to the parallelogram law. Examples: displacements, velocities, accelerations. Scalar: parameters possessing magnitude but not direction. Examples: mass, volume, temperature Vector classifications: - Fixed or bound vectors have well defined points of application that cannot be changed without affecting an analysis. - Free vectors may be freely moved in space without changing their effect on an analysis. - Sliding vectors may be applied anywhere along their line of action without affecting an analysis. Equal vectors have the same magnitude and direction. Negative vector of a given vector has the same magnitude and the opposite direction. 2-4
5 3.3 Adding vectors geometrically Vector a and vector b can be added geometrically to yield the resultant vector sum, c. Place the second vector, b, with its tail touching the head of the first vector, a. The vector sum, s, is the vector joining the tail of a to the head of b.
6 Resultant of Two Forces force: action of one body on another; characterized by its point of application, magnitude, line of action, and sense. Experimental evidence shows that the combined effect of two forces may be represented by a single resultant force. The resultant is equivalent to the diagonal of a parallelogram which contains the two forces in adjacent legs. Force is a vector quantity. 2-6
7 Addition of Vectors Addition of three or more vectors through repeated application of the triangle rule The polygon rule for the addition of three or more vectors. Vector addition is associative, P Q S P Q S P Q S Multiplication of a vector by a scalar 2-7
8 3.3 Adding vectors geometrically Some rules:
9 3.3 Adding vectors sample problem
10 Addition of Vectors Trapezoid rule for vector addition Triangle rule for vector addition B C C Law of cosines, 2 2 R P Q R P Q 2 2PQ cos B B Law of sines, ( Refer to second figure from top) sin A sin B sin C Q R P Vector addition is commutative, P Q Q P Vector subtraction 2-10
11 Resultant of Several Concurrent Forces Concurrent forces: set of forces which all pass through the same point. A set of concurrent forces applied to a particle may be replaced by a single resultant force which is the vector sum of the applied forces. Vector force components: two or more force vectors which, together, have the same effect as a single force vector. 2-11
12 Sample Problem 2.1 SOLUTION: The two forces act on a bolt at A. Determine their resultant. Graphical solution - construct a parallelogram with sides in the same direction as P and Q and lengths in proportion. Graphically evaluate the resultant which is equivalent in direction and proportional in magnitude to the the diagonal. Trigonometric solution - use the triangle rule for vector addition in conjunction with the law of cosines and law of sines to find the resultant. 2-12
13 Sample Problem 2.1 Graphical solution - A parallelogram with sides equal to P and Q is drawn to scale. The magnitude and direction of the resultant or of the diagonal to the parallelogram are measured, R 98 N 35 Graphical solution - A triangle is drawn with P and Q head-to-tail and to scale. The magnitude and direction of the resultant or of the third side of the triangle are measured, R 98 N
14 Sample Problem 2.1 Trigonometric solution - Apply the triangle rule. From the Law of Cosines, R 2 P sin A Q sin A 2 Q 2 2PQ cos B N 60N 240N60Ncos155 R 97.73N From the Law of Sines, sin B R Q sin B R sin155 A A N 97.73N 2-14
15 Sample Problem 2.2 A barge is pulled by two tugboats. If the resultant of the forces exerted by the tugboats is 5000 lbf directed along the axis of the barge, determine a) the tension in each of the ropes for = 45 o, b) the value of for which the tension in rope 2 is a minimum. SOLUTION: Find a graphical solution by applying the Parallelogram Rule for vector addition. The parallelogram has sides in the directions of the two ropes and a diagonal in the direction of the barge axis and length proportional to 5000 lbf. Find a trigonometric solution by applying the Triangle Rule for vector addition. With the magnitude and direction of the resultant known and the directions of the other two sides parallel to the ropes given, apply the Law of Sines to find the rope tensions. The angle for minimum tension in rope 2 is determined by applying the Triangle Rule and observing the effect of variations in. 2-15
16 Sample Problem 2.2 Graphical solution - Parallelogram Rule with known resultant direction and magnitude, known directions for sides. T1 3700lbf T2 2600lbf Trigonometric solution - Triangle Rule with Law of Sines T 1 T lbf sin 45 sin30 sin105 T1 3660lbf T2 2590lbf 2-16
17 Sample Problem 2.2 The angle for minimum tension in rope 2 is determined by applying the Triangle Rule and observing the effect of variations in. The minimum tension in rope 2 occurs when T 1 and T 2 are perpendicular. T2 T1 5000lbf sin lbf cos 30 T lbf T lbf
18 3.4 Components of vectors The component of a vector along an axis is the projection of the vector onto that axis. The process of finding the components of a vector is called resolution of the vector. In 3-dimensions, there are three components of a vector along predefined x-, y-, and z-axes.
19 3.4 Components of vectors We find the components of a vector by using the right triangle rules.
20 Example, vectors:
21 3.5: Unit vectors A unit vector is a vector of unit magnitude, pointing in a particular direction. Unit vectors pointing in the x-, y-, and z-axes are usually designated by iˆ, ˆ, j kˆ respectively a Therefore vector,, with components a x and a y in the x- and y-directions, can be written in terms of the following vector sum: a a iˆ x a y ˆj
22 3.6: Adding vectors by components If then Therefore, two vectors must be equal if their corresponding components are equal. The procedure of adding vectors also applies to vector subtraction. Therefore, where
23 Adding and Subtracting Vectors Adding Vectors Using Components: 1. Find the components of each vector to be added. 2. Add the x- and y-components separately. 3. Find the resultant vector.
24 Example, vector addition:
25 Example, vector addition: Note:
26 3.7: Vectors and the Laws of Physics Freedom of choosing a coordinate system Relations among vectors do not depend on the origin or the orientation of the axes. Relations in physics are also independent of the choice of the coordinate system.

30 Equilibrium of a Particle When the resultant of all forces acting on a particle is zero, the particle is in equilibrium. Newton s First Law: If the resultant force on a particle is zero, the particle will remain at rest or will continue at constant speed in a straight line. Particle acted upon by two forces: - equal magnitude - same line of action - opposite sense Particle acted upon by three or more forces: - graphical solution yields a closed polygon - algebraic solution R F 0 F x 0 F y

32 Sample Problem 2.4 SOLUTION: Construct a free-body diagram for the particle at the junction of the rope and cable. Apply the conditions for equilibrium by creating a closed polygon from the forces applied to the particle. In a ship-unloading operation, a 3500-lb automobile is supported by a cable. A rope is tied to the cable and pulled to center the automobile over its intended position. What is the tension in the rope? Apply trigonometric relations to determine the unknown force magnitudes. 2-32

A model is placed in a test channel and three cables are used to align its bow on the channel centerline. For a given speed, the tension is 40 lb in cable AB and 60 lb in cable AE. Determine the drag force exerted on the hull and the tension in cable AC. Choosing the hull as the free body, draw a free-body diagram. Express the condition for equilibrium for the hull by writing that the sum of all forces must be zero. Resolve the vector equilibrium equation into two component equations. Solve for the two unknown cable tensions. 2-34
