[1] A particle is traveling along the line y = -2x + 10. When the particle is at position A, its position vector makes a 45° angle with the X axis. At position B, its vector makes a 75° angle with the X axis. Draw this system to some convenient scale and a. Write an expression for the particle's position vector in position A using complex number notation, in both polar and Cartesian forms. b. Write an expression for the position vector in Position B using complex number notation, in both polar and Cartesian forms. c. Write a vector equation for the position difference between points B and A. Substitute the complex number notation for the vectors in this equation and solve for the position difference numerically. d. Check the result of part c with a graphical method.
