Vectors a and b have scalar product â6.00, and their vector product has magnitude +9.00. what is the angle between these two vectors?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Value of angle between vector a and b is [tex]56.30^{\circ}[/tex].

Explanation:

Vectors a and b have scalar product 6.00

Let [tex]\theta[/tex] be the angle between a and b.

[tex]\vec{a}.\vec{b} = 6[/tex]

ab cos [tex]\theta[/tex] = 6 ...(1)

Vectors a and b have magnitude of vector product 9.00

[tex]\vec{a} \times\vec{b} = 9[/tex]

ab sin [tex]\theta[/tex] = 9 ...(2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1) we get

[tex]\frac{ab sin \theta}{ab cos \theta}  = \frac{9}{6}[/tex]

tan [tex]\theta[/tex] = 1.5

[tex]\theta = tan ^{-1} (1.5)[/tex]

[tex]\theta[/tex] = [tex]56.30^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, value of angle between vector a and b is [tex]56.30^{\circ}[/tex].

The angle between two vectors will be "56.30°".

Scalar and Vector product:

According to the question,

Vectors a and b have scalar product = 6.00

Magnitude = +9.00

Let,

Angle between "a" and "b" = [tex]\Theta[/tex]

then,

[tex]\vec{a}. \vec{b} = 6[/tex]

ab Cosθ = 6 ...(Equation 1)

and,

[tex]\vec{a}\times \vec{b} = 9[/tex]

ab Sinθ = 9 ...(Equation 2)

By dividing both equations, we get

→ [tex]\frac{ab \ Sin\Theta}{ab \ Cos\Theta}=\frac{9}{6}[/tex]

      [tex]tan \Theta = 1.5[/tex]

            [tex]\Theta = tan^{-1} (1.5)[/tex]

               [tex]=56.30^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus the above answer is correct.
