The discussion revolves around a vector defined as R=2i + j + 3k, with participants exploring how to determine the magnitudes of its components and the angles it makes with the coordinate axes. The subject area includes vector analysis and trigonometry.
The discussion is ongoing, with some participants expressing frustration over the lack of initial attempts to solve the problem. Others are trying to guide the original poster towards understanding the basic concepts of vector magnitudes and direction angles.
There is an expectation for participants to show their work before receiving assistance, which has led to some tension in the conversation. The original poster has indicated a lack of understanding of basic vector concepts.
lmao! Funny talking little funky :pgearstrike said:punderq arunburg...m asking u to do dat question...not to comment my question...u little funky...challenge u to answer my question ...
That makes no sense at all! The magnitude of a vector is its length- a number, not a vector. The magnitude of the vector [itex]x\vec{i}+ y\vec{j}+ z\vec{k}[/itex] is [itex]\sqrt{x^2+ y^2+ z^2}[/itex].gearstrike said:ermm,
what i know abaout magnitude x,y and z is equal to = i + j + k.
