of objects without of objects without consideration of the consideration of the
circumstances leading to circumstances leading to the motion the motion
FRAME OF REFERENCEFRAME OF REFERENCE
- a set of axes relative to which an a set of axes relative to which an observer can measure the observer can measure the position and motion of all points position and motion of all points in a system, as well as the in a system, as well as the orientation of objects in it.orientation of objects in it.
- Coordinate axes are used to represent the frame of reference

Vectors are usually named with capitalletters with arrows above the letter.
They are represented graphically as arrows.
The length of the arrow correspondsto the magnitude of the vector.The direction the arrow points
is the vector direction.Examples :
A = 20 m/s at 35° N of E B = 120 m at 60° S of E
C = 5.8 m west

Roman Road
The secret of how Roman engineers were able to construct “straight as an arrow” roads is a piece of rope with 11 knots folded into three sections with the following ratio: 3:4:5.

Resolving a Vector Into ComponentsResolving a Vector Into Components

A

Ay
The horizontal, or x-component, of A is found by Ax = A cos
The vertical, ory-component, of A is found by Ay = A sin By the Pythagorean Theorem, Ax
2 + Ay2 = A2.
Every vector can be resolved using these formulas, such that A is the magnitude of A, and is the angle the vector makes with the x-axis.Each component must have the proper “sign”according to the quadrant the vector terminates in.
Analytical Method of Vector AdditionAnalytical Method of Vector Addition1. Find the x- and y-components of each vector.
Ax = A cos = Ay = A sin = Bx = B cos = By = B sin =Cx = C cos = Cy = C sin =
2. Add the x-components. This is the x-component (Rx) of the resultant.
Rx =
3. Add the y-components. This is the y-component (Ry) of the resultant.
Ry =
4. Use the Pythagorean TheoremPythagorean Theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant vector.Rx
2 + Ry2 = R2
5. Find the reference angle by taking the inverse tangent of the absolute value of the y-component divided by the x-component.
= = TanTan-1-1 RRyy/R/Rxx
6. Use the “signs” of Rx and Ry to determine the quadrant.
