Explanation of Solution

Given data:

  A=4i,B=6i+6j

Formula Used:

Consider vectors A and B are perpendicular the vector product of two vectors, that is,

  |A×B|=|A||B|sinϕ=|A||B|sin90o|A×B||A||B|=1.....(1)

Using scalar product of two vectors we can find angle between the vectors.

  |AB|=|A||B|cosϕϕ=cos1(AB|A||B|)

Calculation:

The vector product of vector A and B is

  A=4i,B=6i+6jA×B=(4i)×(6i+6j)=(4i×6i)+(4i×6j)=0+24k^=24k^

The magnitude of vector A and B are

  |A|=(4i^)2+02+02=4|B|=(6i^)2+(6j^)2+02=62|A||B|=4(62)=242|A×B|(|A||B|)=|24k^|242=0.707

Comparing with equation (1) , the vector A and B are not perpendicular.

The scalar product of vector A and B is

  AB=4i^(6i^+6j^)=24(i^i^)+24(i^j^)=24

The angle between the vectors A and B is

  ϕ=cos1(AB|A||B|)=cos1(24242)=cos1(12)=45o

Conclusion:

The angle between the vectors A and B is 45o .

Explanation of Solution

Given data:

  A=4i^,B=6i^+6k^

Formula used:

We consider vectors A and B are perpendicular the vector product of two vectors, that is

  |A×B|=|A||B|sinϕ=|A||B|sin90o|A×B||A||B|=1.....(1)

Using scalar product of two vectors we can find angle between the vectors.

  |AB|=|A||B|cosϕϕ=cos1(AB|A||B|)

Explanation of Solution

Given data:

  A=2i^+3j^,B=3i^+2j^

Formula used:

We consider vectors A and B are perpendicular the vector product of two vectors, that is,

  |A×B|=|A||B|sinϕ=|A||B|sin90o|A×B||A||B|=1.....(1)

Using scalar product of two vectors we can find angle between the vectors.

  |AB|=|A||B|cosϕϕ=cos1(AB|A||B|)

Calculation:
