Hamad Almuhanna math 250 S2014 15553 WeBWorK assignment number Homework 12-3 is due : 02/19/2014 at 09:30am PST. The

(* replace with url for the course home page *) for the course contains the syllabus, grading policy and other information.

This file is /conf/snippets/setHeader.pg you can use it as a model for creating files which introduce each problem set.

The primary purpose of WeBWorK is to let you know that you are getting the correct answer or to alert you if you are making some kind of mistake. Usually you can attempt a problem as many times as you want before the due date. However, if you are having trouble figuring out your error, you should consult the book, or ask a fellow student, one of the TA’s or your professor for help. Don’t spend a lot of time guessing – it’s not very efficient or effective.

Give 4 or 5 significant digits for (floating point) numerical answers. For most problems when entering numerical answers, you can if you wish enter elementary expressions such as 2 ∧ 3 instead of 8, sin(3 ∗ pi/2)instead of -1, e ∧ (ln(2)) instead of 2, (2 + tan(3))∗(4 − sin(5))∧ 6 − 7/8 instead of 27620.3413, etc. Here’s the list of the functions which WeBWorK understands.

You can use the Feedback button on each problem page to send e-mail to the professors.

1. (1 pt) If a =< 8,−7,−10 > and b =< 2,−5,−8 >, find a · b = . 2. (1 pt) What is the angle in radians between the vectors

a =< −7, 5, 1 > and b =< −5, 8,−10 >?

Angle: (radians)

3. (1 pt) What is the angle in radians between the vectors -1i + 8j + 1k and -9i + 2j + 5k?

Angle: (radians)

4. (1 pt) Let a =< −6,−6,−5 > and b =< 2, 4, 10 > be vectors. Find

the scalar and vector projections of b onto a. Scalar Projection:

Vector Projection:

5. (1 pt) An object moves along a straight line from point (-7, -6,

4) to point (1, 9, 5) under the influence of a constant force F = 4i + 3j − 7k.

Find the work done by this force if the distance is measured in meters and the magnitude of the force is measured in newtons. (If the work is negative, then the force was actually hindering the motion.)

Work: Nm 6. (1 pt) A woman exerts a horizontal force of 8 pounds on a box as

she pushes it up a ramp that is 10 feet long and inclined at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal.

Find the work done on the box. Work: ft-lb
