,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
coordinatesof point B.
With A = (6, −2, −4) and B = 1 3B(2, −2, 1), we use the fact that |B − A|= 10, or

or B − 8B − 44 = 0. Thus B = 8± 64−176
2 = 11.75 (taking positive option) and so

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
( 0.77, 0.62, 0.15)
aAB = |B − A| = − −
c) a unit vector directed from the origin to the midpoint of the line AB.

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)
a G= = (−0.26, 0.39, 0.88)
|(−48, 72, 162)|
c) a unit vector directed from Q toward P :

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

, 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 2xa+
x 2zy sin 2xay+ y2 sin 2xaz for the region
| | x| |, y ,| an
|d
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 = y 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 =
2
y 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
