The dot product can be used to determine the square of the magnitude of a vector v. which of the following expressions represents the square of the magnitude of a vector? a. v/|v|b. v.|v|c. v. vd. v^2.v^2

c) v.v

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dot product also known as scalar product or inner product is the multiplication of two equal length vectors which results in a scalar.

Mathematically,

where and are the magnitudes of the vectors a and b

is the angle between vectors a and b

If a and b are in the same direction then

if a and b are orthogonal (90°) then

To represent the square of the magnitude of a vector v

Hence option c is the correct answer

a. v/|v|

Here vector v is divided by its own magnitude

b. v.|v|

Here vector v is multiplied by its own magnitude

c. v.v

Represents the square of the magnitude of vector v

d. v^2.v^2

Represents the dot product of square of vector v

a
