Given \(\left|\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\right|=2,\left|\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right|=3\) and \(\left|\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right|=3\). Find the value of \(\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+2 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right) \cdot\left(3 \overrightarrow{A_{1}}-4 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\) (A) \(-64\) (B) 60 (C) \(-60\) (D) 64

Short Answer

Expert verified
The value of \(\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+2 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\cdot\left(3 \overrightarrow{A_{1}}-4 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right) = -64\), which corresponds to the answer choice (A).

Step by step solution

01

Write down the information given

We are given the magnitudes of \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\), \(\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\), and \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}} + \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\) as follows: \(\left|\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\right| = 2\) \(\left|\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right| = 3\) \(\left|\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right| = 3\)
02

Use the dot product property to find the dot product

Recall that \(\left|\overrightarrow{A}+\overrightarrow{B}\right|^2 = \left|\overrightarrow{A}\right|^2 + 2(\overrightarrow{A}\cdot\overrightarrow{B}) + \left|\overrightarrow{B}\right|^2\). We can plug in the given magnitudes and solve for \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\): \(3^2 = 2^2 + 2(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}) + 3^2\rightarrow 9=4+2(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}) +9\) Solving for \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\): \(2(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}) = -4\) \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}} = -2\)
03

Use the dot product of linear combinations to find the desired value

We need to find the value of \(\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+2 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\cdot\left(3 \overrightarrow{A_{1}}-4 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\). Using the dot product of linear combinations property, we get: \(\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+2 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\cdot\left(3 \overrightarrow{A_{1}}-4 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right) = (1\cdot3)\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\right)+ (1\cdot-4)\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)+(2\cdot3)\left(\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\right)+ (2\cdot-4)\left(\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\) Since \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{1}} = \left|\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\right|^2 = 4\) and \(\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}} = \left|\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right|^2 = 9\), we substitute these values, along with the value of \(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}\cdot\overrightarrow{A_{2}}\): \((1\cdot3)(4)+ (1\cdot-4)(-2)+(2\cdot3)(-2)+ (2\cdot-4)(9) = 12 + 8 - 12 - 72\) Now, calculate the final value: \(12 + 8 - 12 - 72 = -64\) Therefore, the value of \(\left(\overrightarrow{A_{1}}+2 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right)\cdot\left(3 \overrightarrow{A_{1}}-4 \overrightarrow{A_{2}}\right) = -64\), which corresponds to the answer choice (A).
