After studying the material of this chapter, you should be able to:
1. Represent the magnitude and direction of a vector using a protractor and ruler.
2. Multiply or divide a vector quantity by a scalar quantity.
3. Use the methods of graphical analysis to determine the magnitude and
direction of the vector resultant in problems involving vector addition
or subtraction of two or more vector quantities. The graphical methods
to be used are the parallelogram method and the Head to tail method.
4. Use the trigonometric component method to resolve a vector components in the x and y directions.
5. Use the trigonometric component method to determine the vector
resultant in problems involving vector addition or subtraction of two or
more vector quantities.
6. Use the kinematics equations of Chapter Two along with the vector
component method of Chapter Three to solve problems involving two
dimensional motion of projectiles.
