Chapter 1: Q4CP (page 12)

If _{$\overset{鈬赌}{v} = <2, - 3, 5> m / s$}, then what is $|- \frac{1}{2} \overset{鈬赌}{v}| ?$ ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value of $|- \frac{1}{2} \overset{鈬赌}{v}|$ is 3.08 m/s.

Step by step solution

Understanding the concept of multiplication of vector with a scalar

If a vector is multiplied by a scalar, its corresponding components get multiplied by the scalar individually.

The magnitude of a particular vector can be evaluated when its corresponding components are squared and added. Then its square root needs to be found.

Determination of the velocity vector -12v⇀

The given velocity vector is _{. $\overset{鈬赌}{v} = (2, - 3, 5) m / s$}

Multiply the given vector by $- \frac{1}{2}$ to get the required velocity vector,

$- \frac{1}{2} \overset{鈬赌}{v} = <- \frac{2}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{5}> m / s = <- 1 \frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2}> m / s$

Determination of magnitude of -12v⇀

Take the square root of the sum of the squares of all the components of the vectors to obtain the required magnitude,

$|- \frac{1}{2} \overset{鈬赌}{v}| = \sqrt{{(- 1)}^{2} (\frac{3}{2}) {(- \frac{5}{2})}^{2} m / s} = \sqrt{1 卤 \frac{9}{4}} 卤 \frac{25}{4} m / s \sqrt{\frac{4 卤 9 卤 25}{4}} m / s = 3.08 m / s$
