The answer that you submitted suggests that you determined a correct magnitude but submitted it in the answer box for the wrong axis with an incorrect direction. If one of the sections below does not match your situation please visit the feedback discussion page for try the Vectors demo question again.

Vertical

The answer that you submitted suggests that you are close to understanding how to add components of vectors together, however, you submitted the result for the vertical axis to part (a), which asks for the addition of the horizontal axis components and your result was oriented in the wrong direction.

Please try the question again.

Horizontal

The answer that you submitted suggests that you are close to understanding how to add components of vectors together, however, you submitted the result for the horizontal axis to part (b), which asks for the addition of the vertical axis components, and your result was oriented in teh wrong direction.
