Which statement accurately describes the vector shown?

magnitude of StartRoot 11 EndRoot and direction angle equal to approximately 40°
magnitude of StartRoot 11 EndRoot and direction angle equal to approximately 50°
magnitude of StartRoot 61 EndRoot and direction angle equal to approximately 40°
magnitude of StartRoot 61 EndRoot and direction angle equal to approximately 50°

Respuesta :

Answer:

The magnitude is definitely sqrt 61

Step-by-step explanation:

I am unsure how to mathematically solve for the direction angle but my educated guess would be C magnitude of sqrt 61 and direction angle equal to approximately 40° because the vector is below halfway of the 90 degree angle.

The magnitude and the direction of vector a are √61 and 40°. Then the correct option is C.

What is a vector?

The quantity which has magnitude, direction and follows the law of vector addition is called a vector.

From the graph, we can see that the coordinate points of the vector that is given as (0, 0) and (5, 6)

Let a be the vector.

Then the magnitude of the vector will be

[tex]\rm \overrightarrow{a} =\sqrt{(6-0)^2 + (5-0)^2 } \\\\\overrightarrow{a} =\sqrt{6^2 + 5^2 }\\\\\overrightarrow{a} =\sqrt{36 + 25}\\\\\overrightarrow{a} =\sqrt{61}[/tex]

The direction will be

[tex]\rm \theta = tan^{-1} \dfrac{5}{6}\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} 0.833\\\\\theta = 39.80 \approx 40^o[/tex]

The magnitude and the direction of vector a are √61 and 40°. Then the correct option is C.
