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>

What is 0.40 as a fraction?
maxonik [38]
Please remember to post in the right category next time :)

.40 as a fraction is 4/10 or 2/5
the 4 is in the tenths place, so put it over a 10 to make it a fraction.
then, simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2, and you get 2/5
