O The cross product between the two vectors has a z-component equal to zero. O The magnitudes of the two vectors are the same. O The angle between the two vectors is 70.52°arrow_forwardProblem 1: Let A = î - 2ĵ and B = 2î + ĵ. Compute A.B. Problem 2: Let A = î - 2ĵ and B = 2î + ĵ. Compute A.

Begin by adopting a Cartesian coordinate system. Without loss of generality, you may orient your coordinate system such that the x axis is along B, so that B = Bi. You then have the freedom to place the y axis in the plane defined by B and C. (But wait- what happens if B and C point in the same direction, so that no such plane is defined?)
