The position vector can be transcribed as:

A<span> = 6 i + y j                           </span>

i <span>points in the x-direction and j points in the y-direction.</span>

The magnitude of the vector is its dot product with itself:

<span>|A|2 = A·A</span>

<span>102  = (6 i + y j)•(6 i+ y j)            Note that i•j = 0, and  i•i  = j•j = 1 </span>

<span>100  = 36 + y2       </span>

<span>64    = y2</span>

<span>get the square root of 64 = 8</span>

<span>The vertical component of the vector is 8 cm.</span>

For #2.
(A) The resultant velocity of the boat is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the sides being the river and boat velocities.
The Pythagorean theorem: h^2 = a^2 + b^2
then you can use: soh cah toa to find any angles.
(B) The river velocity is not opposing the direction of travel, it increases the boats velocity from 2m/s to 2.5m/s

Explain the relationship between speed, velocity and acceleration
Montano1993 [528]
Speed is the rate at which something covers a distance; velocity is the same but it takes into account whether it goes forwards or backwards; and acceleration is the rate of an increase in speed.
