and that lAl + lBl =
lCl , how are vectors
A and B oriented with
respect to each
other?
A) they are perpendicular to each other
B) they are parallel and in the same direction
C) they are parallel but in the opposite
direction
D) they are at 45° to each other
E) they can be at any angle to each other
The only time vector magnitudes will simply add together is when
the direction does not have to be taken into account (i.e., the
direction is the same for both vectors). In that case, there is no
angle between them to worry about, so vectors A and B must be
pointing in the same direction.

How to Succeed in Physics
1) Don’t get behind. Don’t wait until the last evening to start homework!
2) When you can’t work problems, it usually means you don’t understand the concepts or have difficulty with the mathematics.
3) Work lots of problems that have answers at the back of the book.
4) Try the questions at the end of the chapter.
5) Don’t get behind!

Falling Water Balloons. Roger sees water balloons fall past his window. He notices that each balloon strikes the sidewalk 0.83 s after passing his window. Roger’s room is on the third floor, 15 m above the sidewalk. (a) How fast are the balloons traveling when they pass Roger’s window? (b) Assuming the balloons are being released from rest, from what floor are they being released? Each floor of the dorm is 5.0 m high.

A) at height h

C) at height h/2
D) below height h/2 but above

E) at height 0
The first ball starts at the top with no initial speed. The second ball
starts at the bottom with a large initial speed. Because the balls travel
the same time until they meet, the second ball will cover more
distance in that time, which will carry it over the halfway point before
the first ball can reach it.

The car slows down all the time
because the slope of the x vs. t graph is
diminishing as time goes on.
Remember that the slope of x vs. t is
the velocity! At large t, the value of the
position x does not change, indicating
that the car must be at rest.

Initially, the ball is falling down, so its
velocity must be negativenegative (if UP is
positive). Its velocity is also
increasingincreasing in magnitude as it falls.
Once it bounces, it changes direction
and then has a positivepositive velocity,
which is also decreasingdecreasing as the ball

Review of Vectors
A scalar is a number with units. It can be positive, negative, or zero.
A vector has both a magnitude and direction.
When writing a vector we will put an arrow over it. Sometimes a vector is in boldface.

The magnitude of the vector clearly doubles if each of its
components is doubled. But the angle of the vector is given by tan
= 2y/2x, which is the same as tan = y/x (the original angle).

zero. You can prove this with the tip-to-tail method.

The angle of the vector is given by tan = y/x. Thus, tan = 1
in this case if x and y are equal, which means that the angle
must be 45°.
