The magnitude of the vector (10i - 10k) m/s, is  14.14 m/s.

  • A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude (size) and direction. In this case, the vector (10i - 10k) m/s can be thought of as representing a motion in a three-dimensional space with three axes: x, y, and z. The 'i' and 'k' components of the vector indicate the direction along the x and z axes, respectively.
  • The magnitude of the vector represents the size of the motion, or how fast it is moving.
  • To calculate the magnitude of a vector, we use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides is equal to the square of the longest side (the hypotenuse).
  • In this case, we treat the x and z components of the vector as the two shorter sides, and the magnitude of the vector as the longest side.

So to find the magnitude of the vector (10i - 10k) m/s,

we calculate the square root of the sum of the squares of its x and z components:

(10^2 + (-10)^2)

= √(100 + 100)

= √200

= 10√2 m/s

This calculation gives us the magnitude of the vector (10i - 10k) m/s, which is approximately 14.14 m/s.
