Combining Non-Perpendicular Fs

Go beyond the standard textbooks and take learning to the next level. Take part in scientific explorations, interactive exercises—and do it all right there on your device!

Add force vectors in a dynamic simulator. Draw the vectors and break them into their components. Use trigonometry and Pythagoras theorem to calculate resultant vectors.

• Draw vectors on a coordinate plane.
• Break vectors into x and y components.
• Add the components and find the components of the resultant vector.
• Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector.

App features:
• Can add two, three of four randomly generated vectors.
• Multiple animations and feedback that explain each step of the problem.
• Vectors are dynamically generated. Unlimited exercise potential.
• Test your knowledge with interactive tasks and quizzes.
