1. Find u v and the angle between u and v to the nearest degree. a) u=i+ 3 j , v= 3 i-j b) u=(2,5), v=(4,1) c) u=2i-3j, v=4i-j 2. Using vectors u=3i-2j, v=i+3j and w=4i+5 j find each of the indicated results. a) u (v+w) b) u v + u w c) u(v w) d) (u v)w e) (u v)(u w) f) (u+v) (u-v) 3. Find the work done by the force F in moving an object between points M and N.
