Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Vectors: Problem 50
Vector $\vec{d}_1$ is in the negative direction of a $y$ axis, and vector $\vec{d}_2$ is in the positive direction of an $x$ axis. What are the directions of (a) $\vec{d}_2/4$ and (b) $\vec{d}_1/(-4)$? What are the magnitudes of products (c) $\vec{d}_1 \cdot \vec{d}_2$ and (d) $\vec{d}_1 \cdot (\vec{d}_2/4)$? What is the direction of the vector resulting from (e) $\vec{d}_1 \times \vec{d}_2$ and (f) $\vec{d}_2 \times \vec{d}_1$? What is the magnitude of the vector product in (g) part (e) and (h) part (f)? What are the (i) magnitude and (j) direction of $\vec{d}_1 \times (\vec{d}_2/4)$?
π Solution Approach
Find: (a) $\vec{d}_2/4$ and; (b) $\vec{d}_1/; (c) $\vec{d}_1 \cdot \vec{d}_2$ and
