    Vector Addition and Bearing Calculation in 2D Motion

    OK! woah! STOOPPP everyone! CONCLUSION: -I should've written: did not done -The textbook has YET AGAIN given me a wrong answer. :biggrin: Thanks everyone.

    Vector Addition and Bearing Calculation in 2D Motion

    You know, you could've just replied with a simple correction to the question I asked on how to correct it. "I'm sorry" my grammar isn't the best, but at least you understand (I hope) what I'm saying, and right now, I'm completely confused. Another option was to actually answer the real query...

    Vector Addition and Bearing Calculation in 2D Motion

    Atrocious grammar? How should it be corrected? Also, I don't understand how the textbook can give a wrong value of bearing 20.5 degrees when you've ended up with an identical answer to me of 73.3 degrees. I've checked my calculator skills, they seem pretty fine.

    Vector Addition and Bearing Calculation in 2D Motion

    Hi, I have a Mechanics vector problem here split in two parts. First to solve the magnitude of the resultant vector and then to give the bearing at which it's acting at. Worked out most of it, but the last answer to the question isn't the same as mine. Kind of difficult to explain the question...

    Solving Interval Equation: cosec^2x=(3cotx+4)/2

    Hi everyone, Trying to revise and I came across this question: Solve the eqn cosec^2x = (3cotx + 4)/2, giving all values of x in the interval 0 < x < 2pi in radians to two dp. I ended up with two principal values/angles (working in degrees at the moment), which are: tan^-1(x) =...

    How to Solve Modulus for x+2: -5<x<1

    Also, how would ou go about solving this inequality:S?: |x+2| <3|x| I don't know if you can apply the rule I used before again to this question. Thanks.

    How to Solve Modulus for x+2: -5<x<1

    Hi everyone, Ok I'm trying to revise modulus functions etc and this is supposed to be an 'easy' question but I came up with the wrong answer so now I'm getting confused. I have to solve |x+2| - 1 <2 I used the formula: |x| < b <------> -b < x < b And this is how I used it: |x + 2| - 1<2...

    Is Climate Change Real or a Government Excuse for Taxation?

    Who Believes In Climate Change?? Random question, but I'm not sure if the government is just using climate change as a reason to push forward carbon taxing etc. :approve: Btw, I recycle. :cool:
