Question
Let v =< 6,2 > and w =< 4, -8 >.
Compute i · w.
Use the geometric definition of the dot product and your result from part a to
determine 0, the angle between v and w. Round your answer to one decimal place.
Suppose w (from the prompt) is a force applied to an object and resulted in a
displacement vector of -27. How much work was done on the object by this force? Assume
force is in Newtons and displacement is in meters.
