Physical quantities can be categorized into
one of two types of quantities
Tail Tip
To accurately depict
a vector, it is often
necessary to use a
scale to represent
those quantities
When looking at a vector
in two dimensions, the
vector can be broken
down into two one- v
dimensional vectors
The one-dimensional
part of a two- vy
dimensional vector is
known as a component
vy can be found:
θ
◦ vy = v · sin(θ)
vx
vx can be found:
◦ vx = v · cos(θ)
An archaeologist climbs the Great Pyramid in Giza, Egypt. The pyramid’s
height is 136 m and its width is 2.30 × 102 m. What is the magnitude and
direction of the displacement of the archaeologist after she has climbed
from the bottom to the top?
Given
Δy = 136 m
Δx = ½ (width)

Projectile motion is
the curved path
than an object
follows when
thrown, launched,
or otherwise
projected near the
surface of Earth
When describing the motion of an object in
two dimensions, it can be done in two ways
1
Displacement ∆𝑦 = 𝑣𝑦𝑖 ∆𝑡 − 𝑔(∆𝑡)2 ∆𝑥 = 𝑣𝑥 ∆𝑡
2
𝑣𝑦𝑓 = 𝑣𝑦𝑖 − 𝑔∆𝑡
Velocity 𝑣𝑥𝑓 = 𝑣𝑥𝑖 = constant
𝑣𝑦𝑓 2 = 𝑣𝑦𝑖 2 − 2𝑔∆𝑦

When an object is launched at an angle, it
then has both initial vertical and horizontal
velocities
Given:
