- Question: True or False. Why? A vector space must contain at least two vectors. My Comment: I'm confused why this is a question because I believe it to be False. If I draw one vector on a graph with the coordinates (3,5), it is taking up a vector space on an xy coordinate system. Is that incorrect?arrow_forwardThe Scalar Product The vectors A andB are given by A = 31 + 1j and B = -1î + 1j. (a) Determine the scalar product A - B. SOLUTION Conceptualize There is no physical system to imagine here. Rather, it is purely a mathematical exercise involving two (vectors Categorize Because we have a definition for the scalar product, we categorize this example as a substitution vy problem. Substitute the specific vector expressions for A and B: A-B = (31 + 1j) - (-1î + 1j) = [3i - (-1)i - [31 - 15 - 13 - (-1) + [1j - 15] The same result is obtained when we use the equation A -B = AB, + A8, + A,B, directly, where A, = 3, A, = 1, B, = -1 and 8, = 1.
