COMPONENT METHOD
http://id.mind.net/~zona/mstm/physics/mechanics/vectors/componentAddition/componentAddition2.htm
- Using trigonometry, find the x-component and the y-component for each vector. Refer to a diagram of each vector to correctly reason the sign, (+ or -), for each component.
- Add up both x-components, (one from each vector), to get the x-component of the total.
- Add up both y-components, (one from each vector), to get the y-component of the total.
- Add the x-component of the total to the y-component of the total then use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry to get the size and direction of the total.
GRAPHICAL METHOD
Adding two vectors A and B graphically can be visualized like two successive walks, with the vector sum being the vector distance from the beginning to the end point. Representing the vectors by arrows drawn to scale, the beginning of vector B is placed at the end of vector A. The vector sum R can be drawn as the vector from the beginning to the end point.
