- Which of the following can be described with vectors?
- True or False\text{True or False}True or False === The order in which you add two vectors does not matter.
- True or False\text{True or False}True or False === If a vector is multiplied by any number, only it's magnitude will change; direction will not.
- Suppose that v⃗=⟨3,6⟩\vec{v}= \langle 3,6 \ranglev=⟨3,6⟩ and u⃗=⟨1,8⟩\vec{u}= \langle 1,8 \rangleu=⟨1,8⟩. Find v⃗+u⃗\vec{v}+\vec{u}v+u.
- Suppose that v⃗=⟨4,11⟩\vec{v}= \langle 4,11 \ranglev=⟨4,11⟩. Find ∥v⃗∥\Vert \vec{v} \Vert∥v∥.
- Write this vector as a column vector. (Every space is 1 unit.)
- Write this vector as a row vector. (Every space is 1 unit.)
- True or False\text{True or False}True or False === Any quantity with a magnitude is a vector.
- True or False\text{True or False}True or False === A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
