4.26 A vector has magnitude and direction. Does it have a location in space? Can it vary with time? Will two equal vectors a and b at different locations in space necessarily have identical physical effects? Give examples in support of your answer.

    4.26 Yes and No

    A vector in space has no distinct location. The reason behind this is that a vector stays unchanged when it displaces in a way that its direction and magnitude do not change.

    A vector changes with time. For instance, the velocity vector of a ball moving with a specific speed fluctuates with time.

    Two equivalent vectors situated at different locations in space do not generate the same physical effect. For instance, two equivalent forces acting at different points on a body to rotate the body, but the combination will not generate the equivalent turning effect.

  a = v 0 2 R

after 10 kicks, v = v 0 + 1 0 v 0 1 0 0 = 1 . 1 v 0

R 1 = 1 . 2 1 R

v? = 3tî v? = 24cos 60°î + 24sin 60°? = 12î + 12√3?
v? = v? – v? = (12 – 3t)î + 12√3?
It is minimum when 12 - 3t = 0 ⇒ t = 4sec

ω = θ² + 2θ
α = (ωdω)/dθ = (θ² + 2θ) (2θ + 2)
At θ = 1rad.
ω = 3rad/s and α = 12rad/s²
a? = αR = 12 m/s² a? = ω²R = 9 m/s² A? = √ (a? ² + a? ²) = 15 m/s²

a? = v? ²/4r
a_A? = (v? ²/r²) × r = v? ²/r
a_A = 3v? ²/4r
