Exercises
- If you start at the initial point \((3,7,1)\) and travel to the terminal point \((1,2,5),\) along what vector did you travel?
- If you start at the initial point \((-2,7,6)\) and travel along a vector \(\langle -1,3,0 \rangle,\) what are the coordinates of the terminal point?
-
Sketch the vectors
\(\bm{u} = \langle 3,-3,5 \rangle\)
and \(\bm{v} = \langle 2,5,-4 \rangle\)
in \(xyz\)-space,
then explicitly calculate each of the following:
\( \bm{u} + \bm{v} \)\( \bm{u} - \bm{v} \)\( |\bm{u}| \)\( |\bm{v}| \)\( \bm{\hat{u}} \)\( \bm{\hat{v}} \)\( 3\bm{u} \)\( \bm{u}\cdot\bm{v} \)\( \bm{u} - 2\bm{v} \)\( \bm{v} + \langle 1,-2,3 \rangle \)\( \bm{u} + 2\mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k} \)
