CHAPTER 1

1.1. Given the vectors M = −10ax + 4ay − 8az and N = 8ax + 7ay − 2az, find:
a) a unit vector in the direction of −M + 2N.
−M + 2N = 10ax − 4ay + 8az + 16ax + 14ay − 4az = (26, 10, 4)
Thus
(26, 10, 4)
a= = (0.92, 0.36, 0.14)
|(26, 10, 4)|

b) the magnitude of 5ax + N − 3M:
(5, 0, 0) + (8, 7, −2) − (−30, 12, −24) = (43, −5, 22), and |(43, −5, 22)|= 48.6.
c) |M||2N|(M + N):
|(−10, 4, −8)||(16, 14, −4)|(−2, 11, −10) = (13.4)(21.6)(−2, 11, −10)
= (−580.5, 3193, −2902)

1.2. Given three points, A(4, 3, 2), B(−2, 0, 5), and C(7, −2, 1):
a) Specify the vector A extending from the origin to the point A.

A = (4, 3, 2) = 4ax + 3ay + 2az

b) Give a unit vector extending from the origin to the midpoint of line AB.
The vector from the origin to the midpoint is given by
M = (1/2)(A + B) = (1/2)(4 − 2, 3 + 0, 2 + 5) = (1, 1.5, 3.5)
The unit vector will be
(1, 1.5, 3.5)
m= = (0.25, 0.38, 0.89)
|(1, 1.5, 3.5)|
c) Calculate the length of the perimeter of triangle ABC:
Begin with AB = (−6, −3, 3), BC = (9, −2, −4), CA = (3, −5, −1).
Then

|AB|+ |BC|+ |CA|= 7.35 + 10.05 + 5.91 = 23.32

1.3. The vector from the origin to the point A is given as (6,− 2, −4), and the unit vector directed from the
origin toward point B is (2, —2, 1)/3. If points A and B are ten units apart, find the coordinates of point
B.
With A2
= (6, −2, −4)2 and B = 31 B(2,
1
−2, 1), we use the fact that |B − A|= 10, or
|(6 − 3 B)ax − (2 − 3 B)ay − (4 + 3 B)az | = 10
Expanding, obtain
36 − 8B + 4 B2 + 4 − 8 B + 4 B2 + 16 + 8 B + 1 B2 = 100
9 3 9 √ 3 9
or B2 − 8B − 44 = 0. Thus B = = 11.75 (taking positive option) and so
8± 64−176

B = (11.75)ax − (11.75)ay + (11.75)az = 7.83ax − 7.83ay + 3.92az

,1.4. given points A(8, −5, 4) and B(−2, 3, 2), find:
a) the distance from A to B.

|B − A|= |(−10, 8, −2)|= 12.96

b) a unit vector directed from A towards B. This is found through
B−A
aAB = ( 0.77, 0.62, 0.15)
= − −
|B − A|
c) a unit vector directed from the origin to the midpoint of the line AB.
(A + B)/2 (3, −1, 3)
a = = = (0.69, −0.23, 0.69)
0M √
|(A + B)/2| 19

d) the coordinates of the point on the line connecting A to B at which the line intersects the plane z = 3.
Note that the midpoint, (3, —1, 3), as determined from part c happens to have z coordinate of 3. This
is the point we are looking for.

1.5. A vector field is specified as G = 24xyax + 12(x2 + 2)ay + 18z2az. Given two points, P (1, 2, −1) and
Q(−2, 1, 3), find:
a) G at P : G(1, 2, −1) = (48, 36, 18)
b) a unit vector in the direction of G at Q: G(−2, 1, 3) = (−48, 72, 162), so

(−48, 72, 162)
aG = = (−0.26, 0.39, 0.88)
|(−48, 72, 162)|

c) a unit vector directed from Q toward P :
P−Q (3, −1, 4)
a = = = (0.59, 0.20, −0.78)
QP √
|P − Q| 26

d) the equation of the surface on which |G| = 60: We write 60 = |(24xy, 12(x2 + 2), 18z2)|, or
10 = |(4xy, 2x2 + 4, 3z2)|, so the equation is

100 = 16x2y2 + 4x4 + 16x2 + 16 + 9z4

1.6. For the G field in Problem 1.5, make sketches of Gx , Gy , Gz and |G| along the line y = 1, z = 1, for
0 ≤ x ≤ 2. We find√G (x, 1, 1) = (24x, 12x2 + 24, 18), from which Gx = 24x, Gy = 12x2 + 24,
Gz = 18, and |G|= 6 4x + 32x + 25. Plots are shown below.

1.7. Given the vector field E = 4zy2 cos 2xax + 2zy sin 2xay + y2 sin 2xaz for the region x| ,| y| ,|and z| less
|
than 2, find:
a) the surfaces on which Ey = 0. With Ey = 2zy sin 2x = 0, the surfaces are 1) the plane z = 0, with
|x| < 2, |y| < 2; 2) the plane y = 0, with |x| < 2, |z| < 2; 3) the plane x = 0, with |y| < 2, |z| < 2;
4) the plane x = π/2, with |y| < 2, |z| < 2.
b) the region in which Ey = Ez: This occurs when 2zy sin 2x = y2 sin 2x, or on the plane 2z = y, with
|x| < 2, |y| < 2, |z| < 1.
c) the region in which E = 0: We would have Ex = Ey = Ez = 0, or zy2 cos 2x = zy sin 2x =
y2 sin 2x = 0. This condition is met on the plane y = 0, with |x| < 2, |z| < 2.

1.8. Two vector fields are F = −10ax + 20x(y − 1)ay and G = 2x2yax − 4ay + zaz. For the point P (2, 3, −4),
find:
a) |F|: F at (2, 3, −4) = (−10, 80, 0), so |F|= 80.6.
b) |G|: G at (2, 3, −4) = (24, −4, −4), so |G|= 24.7.
c) a unit vector in the direction of F − G: F − G = (−10, 80, 0) − (24, −4, −4) = (−34, 84, 4). So
F−G (−34, 84, 4)
a= = = (−0.37, 0.92, 0.04)
|F − G| 90.7

d) a unit vector in the direction of F + G: F + G = (−10, 80, 0) + (24, −4, −4) = (14, 76, −4). So
F+G (14, 76, −4)
a= = = (0.18, 0.98, −0.05)
|F + G| 77.4
