We can use lists of numbers like l to represent a mathematical vector. Recall from math classes that a vector is an object with a magnitude and direction. The magnitude is the sqrt of the sum of the squares (for a vector (x,y) it's the Pythagorean theorem for the magnitude (x^2 + y^2)**(1/2)). For a vector of any other length, the formula generalizes to (l[0]^2 + l[1]^2 + l[2]^2 + ... )**(1/2). For this problem use l from Problem 1 and a for loop to compute the magnitude of l with the result stored in l_mag. For l above, its magnitude is 12.96. Python gives you the ** exponentiation operator to raise a number to a power. You could also import math and use math.sqrt(). l = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8] Please give proper explanation and typed answer only.
