Question

$I f \to A = 2^i - 3^j and \to B = - 4^i + 2^j, then | \to A . \to B | =$ ___

Open in App

Solution

$\to A = 2^i - 3^j \to B = - 4^i + 2^j, \to A \cdot \to B = (2^i - 3^j) . (- 4^i + 2^j)$

$= (2 \times - 4) (^i \cdot^i) + (2 \times 2) (^i \cdot^j) + (3 \times 4) (^j \cdot^i) - (3 \times 2) (^j \cdot^j)$

$Now^i \cdot^i =^j \cdot^j = 1 (|^i | |^i | cos 0 = 1)$

$^i \cdot^j =^j \cdot^i = 0$ ( $^i$ and $^j$ are perpendicular to each other)

So $(2^i - 3^j) . (- 4^i + 2^j)$

= -8 + 0 + 0 – 6

= -14

$| \to A . \to B | = | - 14 | = 14$
