Two vectors 10N west and 15N east originated from the same point.Calculate their resultant.

Not a lot of physics or math needed here.
Aren't "west" and "east" opposite directions?

So you have 10 N going west, then 15 N going east, don't you just have 5 N east??

or

resultant = 10(cos180,sin180) + 15(cos0, sin0)
= 10(-1,0) + 15(1,0)
= (-10,0) + (15,0)
= (5,0)
Thanks alot
IT IS CORRECT
TANK'S
10(_1.0)+15(1.0)=(10.0+(15.0)=5.0 East.
Good
5N west
THE ANSWER IS 5N EAST
