Vector A has a magnitude of 2.2 units, vector B has a magnitude of 10 units, and Vector A times Upper B has a value of 14.0. What is the angle between the directions of Vector A and Vector B?
5 answers
not sure what Upper B means
It should be Vector B instead of Upper B
when you say A times B, is that the dot product, or the cross product?
The dot product
|A| |B| cos theta = A dot B
2.2 * 10 * cos theta = 14
theta = cos^-1 (14/22)
theta = 50.5 degrees
2.2 * 10 * cos theta = 14
theta = cos^-1 (14/22)
theta = 50.5 degrees
