let u = (-3,4)........... write resulting vector in component form and find magnitude....
condition is 3u
-3 is x component of ur given vector u
yes.........i know....
4 is y component of vector u
i just want to know how to find magnitude.......... no clue about that
good
\(||-3i+4j||=\sqrt{(-3)^2+4^2}\)
(-3)^2=?
(-3)^2=3^2
note: this is just the Pythagorean theorem.
k @zzr0ck3r ...... but equals 5......
so that's the magnitude...?
\(||<-3,4>||=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{25}=5\) Correct \(\huge \checkmark\)
yes
lol......... dude... the answers says 15....... i am confused as well....
were you given another vector?
the fact that it says resultant vector makes me believe there was more than one vector and you were supposed to do something with it...
surely the magnitude of <-3,4> is not 15
well it had v = (2,4)......... ohh m guessing it has something to do with this
yes
lol....... sorry my bad
post the whole question if you want the whole answer:P
k hang on a sec......
Let u = (-3,4), v = (2,4) and w = (4,-1)........Write each resulting vector in component form and find the magnitude............ question:- 3u @zzr0ck3r
but either way, \(||<a_0,a_1,a_2,....,a_n>||=\sqrt{a_0^2+a_1^2+a_2^2+.....+a_n^2}\)
k si i knw i got vector correct as (-9, 12)
still not writing the whole question.....
resultant of what?
3u.....
ok then magnitude is then \(\sqrt{9^2+12^2}=\sqrt{81+144}=\sqrt{225}=15\)
and we win \(\huge \checkmark\)
ahh.............. dang it so simple .. so wat did v have to do with this thou??
no idea
are there more questions?
lol...... see that y i only put the value of u up there in first place.............. but yea there are more question..... but i think i am confident enough now to solve them on my own....................... thx to ur help.........lol.............. Thanks a ton man....... @zzr0ck3r
