Step by step solution

01

To understand the concept

This problem is based on the product rule in which the vector product and scalar product are the two ways of multiplying vectors.Using the given components, the magnitude of the vector can be found. Also, the magnitude angle notation can be used to find out the direction of the vector.

Given,

Magnitude of vector A→is 8.00 and angle is 130°

B→has components B→x=-7.72 andB→y=9.20

Using the above quantities, vector A→and B→vector can be written as

A→=8.00COS130iÁåœ+sin130jÁåœA→=-5.14iÁåœ+6.13jÁåœB→=BxiÁåœ+ByjÁåœB→=-7.72iÁåœ+9.20jÁåœ (i)

02

To find 5A→.B→

Using equation (i) and (ii),5A→.B→ can be written as

5A→.B→=5-5.14iÁåœ+6.13jÁåœ.-7.72iÁåœ+9.20jÁåœ5A→.B→=5-5.14)(-7.72+6.13)(-9.205A→.B→=-83.4

03

To find a 4A→×3B→

In unit vector notation,

4A→×3B→=12A→×B→4A→×3B→=12-5.14iÁåœ+6.13jÁåœÃ—-7.72iÁåœ+9.20jÁåœ

With the standard vector product operation, it gives

4A→×3B→=1294.6kÁåœ4A→×3B→=1.14×103kÁåœ

04

To find magnitude-angle notation

In spherical coordinate system r,θ,ϕgives radial distance, polar angle and azimuthal angle. In this case θ is not defined. Azimuthal angle along z axis is also not defined. Therefore the radial distance is1.14×103

05

To find angle between the directions of A→and 4A→×3B→

Here A→is in xy plane and A→×B→is perpendicular to the plane, the angle between directions of A→ and4A→×3B→ is90°

06

To find A→+3.00k⏜⏜

A→=-5.14iÁåœ+6.13jÁåœ+3.00kÁåœ

07

Magnitude-angle notation with spherical coordinate

Using the Pythagorean theorem, the magnitude of vector A→is given by

A=A→+3.00kÁåœA=5.142+6.132+3.002A=8.54Theangleθ=130°AzimuthalangleisgivenbyÏ•=cos-13.008.54Ï•=69.4°

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) while returning to base camp. He was supposed to travel due north for 5.6 km , but when the snow clears, he discovers that he actually traveled 7.8 km at 50°north of due east. (a) How far and (b) in what direction must he now travel to reach base camp?
