Question

when using the head - to - tail method to draw a vector addition diagram, the resultant is drawn from the _____.
head of the first vector to the tail of the last vector
tail of the first vector to the head of the last vector
tail of the last vector to the head of the last vector
head of the last vector to the tail of the first vector

Explanation:

When using the head - to - tail method for vector addition:

• We place the tail of each subsequent vector at the head of the previous vector.
• The resultant vector, which represents the sum of all the vectors, starts from the tail of the first vector (the origin of the entire addition process) and ends at the head of the last vector (the end - point after adding all vectors in sequence).

Answer:

tail of the first vector to the head of the last vector
