If B→is added to A→, the result is6.0i^+1.0j^ . If B→is subtracted fromrole="math" localid="1656310989938" A→ , the result is -4.0i^+7.0j^. What is the magnitude of role="math" localid="1656311031101" A→?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude ofA→ is 4.1

Step by step solution

01

To understand the concept

This problem deals with the addition and subtraction of vectors.

02

To find the magnitude of A→

Given,

A→+B→=6.0i^+1.0j^(i)A→-B→=-4.0i^+7.0j^(ii)

Adding equations (i) and (ii),

(A→+B→)+(A→-B→)=(6.0i^+1.0j^)+(-4.0i^+7.0j)2A→⃗=(2.0i^+8.0j^)

Thus

A→=(1.0i^+4.0j^) (iii)

Using equation (iii), the magnitude of A→is then given by

A=|A⃗|=Ax2+Ay2A=(1.0)2+(4.0)2A=4.1
