17. TMAT 103 §11.7 Vector Components

18. §11.7 – Vector Components Components of a vector –When 2 vectors are added, they are called components of the resultant Special components –Horizontal –Vertical

19. §11.7 – Vector Components Horizontal and vertical components

20. §11.7 – Vector Components Figure 11.49 Vectors v 1 and v 2 as well as u 1 and u 2 are components of vector V. Vectors V x and V y are the horizontal and vertical components respectively of vector v If two vectors v 1 and v 2 add to a resultant vector v, then v 1 and v 2 are components of v

21. §11.7 – Vector Components Horizontal and vertical components can be found by the following formulas: –v x = |v|cos  –v y = |v|sin 

24. §11.7 – Vector Components Finding a vector v when its components are known: –The magnitude: –The direction:

25. §11.7 – Vector Components Examples –Find v if v x = 40 ft/sec and v y = 27 ft/sec –Find v if v x = 10560 ft/hr and v y = 3 mph

26. §11.7 – Vector Components The impedance of a series circuit containing a resistance and an inductance can be represented as follows. Here  is the phase angle indicating the amount the current lags behind the voltage.

27. §11.7 – Vector Components Example –If the resistance is 55  and the inductive reactance is 27 , find the magnitude and direction of the impedance.
