The magnitude of a vector is the square root of the sum of the squares of the
elements of the vector. Hence,
magnitude = sqrt( (1)^2 + (-1)^2 + (3)^2)) = sqrt (1 + 1 + 9) = sqrt(11)
2. Which of the following vectors has the same direction as [1.5, 2.5, 3.5] ?
You can plot these vectors and check (see the hands-on videos for how to plot
vectors). Alternately you can note that two vectors will have the same direction if
one can be expressed as a multiple of the other. Note that [0.9, 1.5, 2.1] = 0.6 *
[1.5, 2.5, 3.5]
