Question

A vector has an x-component

of 19.5 m and a y-component
of 28.4 m.
Find the magnitude of the
vector.

Answer 1

magnitude: 34.45 m

distance: 55.5 m

Answer 2

34.45m

Step-by-step explanation:

Magnitude of a vector is equal to the square root of sum of squares of x & y vectors.

Magnitude =
`\sqrt({x^2} + {y^2})`

=
`\sqrt({19.5^2} + {28.4^2})`

=34.45m
