Please show how to Graph the Vector Sets. And Solve for itanalytically.

Part A: Experimental Determination of theEquilibrant-

  1. Obtain three sets of vectors, two sets of two and one set ofthree.
  2. Use a scale of 1 cm = 10 g. For example, a vector of magnitude5 cm would be represented by a hanging mass of 50g (5 cm x 10 g/1cm = 50 g). Record each set of vectors below.

Set 1

A  100  g@    0    °

Set 2

A  100  g@   0       °

Set 3

A100   g@  0   °

B  100   g @90    °

B  80  g@    45     °

B80    g @90  °

C200   g @225  °

  1. Record the value of the equilibrant, mass and angle.

Equilibrant:142       g@     225      _for set 1 (Vectors A and B)
Equilibrant:  166              g@  200         _for set 2 (Vectors A and B)
Equilibrant:     76           g@    60        _for set 3 (Vectors A, B and C)

Part B: Graphical Determination ofEquilibrant-

  1. Using the first set of vectors, graphically add the two vectors(using graph paper) to find the resultant.
  2. From the resultant, determine the equilibrant. Refer to page41.
  3. Record your results:

Equilibrant:   g @ _ forset 1 (Vectors A and B)
Equilibrant:    g @ _ for set 2 (Vectors A and B)
Equilibrant:   g @ _ for set 3 (Vectors A, B and C)

Part C: Analytical (Mathematical) Addition ofVectors-

  1. Calculate the x and y components of each of your vectors andrecord in the following table.
  2. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant R andequilibrant E.
