09 Vectors: Problem 20 (1 point) Suppose \(\vec{u} = \hat{i} - 2\hat{j} - \hat{k}\), \(\vec{v} = -2\hat{i} - \hat{j} + \hat{k}\) and \(\vec{w} = -2\hat{i} - 5\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}\). Compute the following values: \( |\vec{u}| + |\vec{v}| = \) \( |-8\vec{u}| + 7|\vec{v}| = \) \( |4\vec{u} - 4\vec{v} + \vec{w}| = \) \( \frac{1}{|\vec{w}|}\vec{w} = \) \( |\frac{1}{\vec{w}}\vec{w}| = \) Note: You can earn partial credit on this problem.

Step 1
\(|\vec{u}| = \sqrt{1^2 + (-2)^2 + (-1)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 4 + 1} = \sqrt{6}\) \(|\vec{v}| = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-1)^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{4 + 1 + 1} = \sqrt{6}\) \(|\vec{w}| = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-5)^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25 + 25} = \sqrt{54} = 3\sqrt{6}\) Show more…
