Find a vector v whose magnitude is 6 and whose component in
Find a vector v whose magnitude is 6 and whose component in the i direction is four times the component in the j direction. one vector that satisfies the given condition is v=
Solution
Let j component= x therefore i component= 4x
therefore vector is v=4xi + xj
therefore 6= sqrt(x^2 + 16x^2)
36=17x^2
x=+-36/17
v= +-36/17(4i+j)
