The x-component of vector R is Rx = −28.2 units and its y-component is Ry = 19.6 units. What are its magnitude and direction? Give the direction as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-direction.

Answer:

Explanation:

Rx = -28.2 units

Ry = 19.6 units

magnitude of R = √  [( - 28.2 )² + ( 19.6 ) ]

= √ ( 795.24 + 384.16 )

= 34.34 units

If θ  be the angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-direction

Tanθ = 19.6 / - 28.2 = -0.695

θ = 180 - 34.8

= 145.2° .
