Find two unit vectors orthogonal to both given vectors. i j k, 4i k

Maurinko [17]3 years ago

The cross product of two vectors gives a third vector \mathbf v that is orthogonal to the first two.

\mathbf v=(\vec i+\vec j+\vec k)\times(4\,\vec i+\vec k)=\begin{vmatrix}\vec i&\vec j&\vec k\\1&1&1\\4&0&1\end{vmatrix}=\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k

Normalize this vector by dividing it by its norm:

\dfrac{\mathbf v}{\|\mathbf v\|}=\dfrac{\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k}{\sqrt{1^2+3^2+(-4)^2}}=\dfrac1{\sqrt{26}}(\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\vec k)

To get another vector orthogonal to the first two, you can just change the sign and use -\mathbf v.

The length of AD is 75. Since opposite sides have the same length, 63 plus 63 is 126. The perimeter is 276, so 276 minus 126 is 150. 150 divided by 2 is 75.

Amanda can jog 18 miles in 5 hours.<br><br>At this rate, how many miles can Amanda jog in 4 hours?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 18 miles by 5 hours to tell us how many miles she can do in 1 hour.

Multiply the answer by 4 to tell us how many miles in 4 hours.

(18/5) * 4 = 14.4 Miles
