Two vectors are given by A= 1.5i+6.6j and B= 7.0i+6.2j. Find (1) (A+B)*B and (2) the component of A along the direction of B?
Given A=1.5i+6.6j and B=7i+6.2j
1)(A+B)*B=(1.5i+6.6j+7i+6.2j)*7i+6.2j
=(8.5i+12.8j)*7i+6.2j
=(8.5*7)+(12.8*6.2)
= 138.86
2) A along the direction of B is
=(1.5i+6.6j).(7i+6.2j)/9.35
=51.42/9.35
=5.499
