Directions?
How do you give directions, north or south or by landmarks? Which do you find easier to use? Why?
Nagesh answers:
My choice is landmarks…
Say me how u will find directions??? Probably by the time of the day and the direction of the sun??? If there is no sun that day… And its a cloudy day… What will u do????
Choose landmarks to be sure…

Paul asks…
Unit Vector of Direction?
A 0.55 kg block of ice is sliding by you on a very slippery floor at 2.5 m/s. As it goes by, you give it a kick perpendicular to its path. Your foot is in contact with the ice block for 0.0025 seconds. The block eventually slides at an angle of 25 degrees from its original direction (labelled in the diagram). The overhead view shown in the diagram is approximately to scale. The arrow represents the average force your toe applies briefly to the block of ice.
What is the unit vector in the direction of the block’s momentum after the kick?
=
Thanks
Nagesh answers:
To get x-direction take cos of the angle
the y direction is zero
and the z direction is cos of (25+90)

Susan asks…
Direction of vectors?
A car is driven east for a distance of 52 km, then north for 35 km, and then in a direction 26° east of north for 27 km. What is the direction?
I found the magnitude but I have no idea how to find the direction.
Nagesh answers:
OOPS I MADE A MISTAKE
to find the direction you have to use tangent
Tangent A = y/x
take y as the north direction
and take x as the east direction
the Y = 35 + 27 cos 26
Y = 59.3
X = 52 + 27 sin 26
X = 63.8
so have the components i am thinking they are right
then to calculate the angle we take the inverse tan of the above equation
inv tan (tan A) = inv tan (Y/X)
A = inv tan(Y/X)
A = inv tan ( 59.3/63.8)
A = 42.9 degs north of east
thats how you find the angle
if the X value had been negative you would have to add 180 degs to the angle
A = inv tan( 63.8/59.3)
A = 47.1 degs east of north
by reversing the numbers you get the angle relative to the Y axis or north axis

Laura asks…
Justin Bieber or One Direction?
i choose one direction hahaha idk but i feel like one direction isnt gonna last cause boy bands dont last that long. like the beattles
