This applet demonstrates a method to find the sum of two vectors The component vectors can be in any directions relative to the given vector and each other and includes finding orthogonal components of a vector in a Cartesian coordinate system.
This applet is a part of a large collection of physics applets, available in a wide range of languages. Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.4.2 of Java.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Kinematics: The Physics of Motion
Unit Title: Vectors Any vector directed in two dimensions can be thought of as having two parts (components). This Java applet, developed by a high school teacher, demonstrates how to find the magnitude of these components. The component vectors can be in any directions relative to the given vector or relative to each other. Link to Unit:
