(a) Compute $\vec{a} \times \vec{b}$ by writing out the $3 \times 3$ determinant expansion explicitly. Be careful with the sign of the $\hat{j}$-component, the cofactor expansion picks up an extra minus sign.通过明确写出 $3 \times 3$ 行列式展开来计算 $\vec{a} \times \vec{b}$。注意 $\hat{j}$ 分量的符号,代数余子式展开会多出一个负号。 [4]
(b) Verify your answer is perpendicular to both $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ by checking $(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \cdot \vec{a} = 0$ and $(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \cdot \vec{b} = 0$.通过验证 $(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \cdot \vec{a} = 0$ 与 $(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \cdot \vec{b} = 0$,确认所得向量与 $\vec{a}$、$\vec{b}$ 均垂直。 [2]

(b) Compute $\vec{u} \times \vec{v}$ via the determinant expansion.用行列式展开计算 $\vec{u} \times \vec{v}$。 [3]
(c) Verify the identity $|\vec{u}|^{2} |\vec{v}|^{2} = (\vec{u} \cdot \vec{v})^{2} + |\vec{u} \times \vec{v}|^{2}$ (Lagrange's identity). Show both sides numerically.验证恒等式 $|\vec{u}|^{2} |\vec{v}|^{2} = (\vec{u} \cdot \vec{v})^{2} + |\vec{u} \times \vec{v}|^{2}$(拉格朗日恒等式)。给出两侧的数值。 [3]

(a) Compute the magnitude of the gravitational force $W = mg$ in newtons.计算重力大小 $W = mg$(牛顿)。 [1]
(b) Resolve $W$ into a component parallel to the ramp surface (call it $W_{\parallel}$, pointing down the slope) and a component perpendicular to the ramp (call it $W_{\perp}$, pressing into the surface). Express both as multiples of $W$ with trig factors, then evaluate to the nearest tenth of a newton.将 $W$ 分解为沿斜面方向的分量(记作 $W_{\parallel}$,沿斜面向下)与垂直于斜面方向的分量(记作 $W_{\perp}$,压向斜面)。先用 $W$ 与三角函数因子表示,再求值,结果保留到 0.1 N。 [4]
(c) State the minimum force, parallel to the ramp and directed up the slope, needed to hold the crate stationary.写出使箱子保持静止所需的沿斜面向上的最小作用力。 [2]
(d) Sanity-check: compute $W_{\parallel}^{2} + W_{\perp}^{2}$ and confirm it equals $W^{2}$ (Pythagoras on perpendicular components).合理性检验:计算 $W_{\parallel}^{2} + W_{\perp}^{2}$,确认其等于 $W^{2}$(垂直分量上的勾股定理)。 [2]
Q11MEDIUMHonors 🇨🇦 ON 🇺🇸 US AP-feeder FRQ §7 Work as Dot Product · HSN-VM.A.3 (+) [9 marks]

A worker pulls a sled by a rope angled $30^{\circ}$ above the horizontal. The rope tension has magnitude $|\vec{F}| = 80$ N. The sled is displaced by $\vec{d} = \langle 12, 0\rangle$ (m) along level ground (east).一工人用绳子拉雪橇,绳与水平方向成 $30^{\circ}$ 向上。绳的张力大小 $|\vec{F}| = 80$ N。雪橇沿水平地面(向东)移动 $\vec{d} = \langle 12, 0\rangle$(m)。

(a) Write the force vector $\vec{F}$ in component form $\langle F_{x}, F_{y}\rangle$, taking east as $+x$ and up as $+y$. Round each to one decimal place.取东向为正 $x$、向上为正 $y$,将力向量 $\vec{F}$ 写成分量形式 $\langle F_{x}, F_{y}\rangle$。每个分量保留 1 位小数。 [3]
(b) Compute the work $W = \vec{F} \cdot \vec{d}$ using the algebraic (componentwise) form. State the units.用代数(按分量)形式计算功 $W = \vec{F} \cdot \vec{d}$,并写出单位。 [3]
(c) Verify your answer using the geometric form $W = |\vec{F}|\,|\vec{d}|\cos\theta$, with $\theta = 30^{\circ}$. The two forms should agree to within rounding.取 $\theta = 30^{\circ}$,用几何形式 $W = |\vec{F}|\,|\vec{d}|\cos\theta$ 验证答案。两种形式在舍入误差内应一致。 [2]
(d) Explain in one sentence why the vertical component of $\vec{F}$ does no work on the sled in this scenario.用一句话说明:在此情境中,为何 $\vec{F}$ 的竖直分量对雪橇做功。 [1]
Q12HARDHonors 🇨🇦 ON 🇺🇸 US AP-feeder FRQ §6 + §7 Torque (Moment) as Cross Product · HSN-VM.A.3 (+) [10 marks]

A wrench is used to tighten a bolt at the origin. The applied force is $\vec{F} = \langle 0, 10, 0\rangle$ N. The point of application (the end of the wrench handle) is at $\vec{r} = \langle 0.30, 0, 0\rangle$ m. Torque about the origin is defined by $\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$.用扳手紧固位于原点处的螺栓。施加力为 $\vec{F} = \langle 0, 10, 0\rangle$ N。作用点(扳手手柄末端)位于 $\vec{r} = \langle 0.30, 0, 0\rangle$ m。关于原点的力矩定义为 $\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$。

(a) Compute $\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$ in component form (N·m). Write out the determinant expansion explicitly.以分量形式计算 $\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$(N·m)。明确写出行列式展开。 [3]
(b) State $|\vec{\tau}|$ (the magnitude of the torque), and the direction of $\vec{\tau}$ relative to the standard right-hand coordinate axes.写出 $|\vec{\tau}|$(力矩大小)以及 $\vec{\tau}$ 相对于标准右手坐标轴的方向。 [2]
(c) The mechanic now repositions the wrench so that the force is applied at $\vec{r}' = \langle 0.30, 0.10, 0\rangle$ m with the same $\vec{F} = \langle 0, 10, 0\rangle$ N. Re-compute $\vec{\tau}' = \vec{r}' \times \vec{F}$.技师调整扳手位置,使作用点变为 $\vec{r}' = \langle 0.30, 0.10, 0\rangle$ m,力仍为 $\vec{F} = \langle 0, 10, 0\rangle$ N。重新计算 $\vec{\tau}' = \vec{r}' \times \vec{F}$。 [3]
(d) Compare $|\vec{\tau}|$ to $|\vec{\tau}'|$. Explain in one sentence why the $y$-component of $\vec{r}'$ does not increase the torque, and connect this to the geometric formula $|\vec{\tau}| = |\vec{r}|\,|\vec{F}|\sin\theta$.比较 $|\vec{\tau}|$ 与 $|\vec{\tau}'|$。用一句话说明为何 $\vec{r}'$ 的 $y$ 分量会增大力矩,并将其与几何公式 $|\vec{\tau}| = |\vec{r}|\,|\vec{F}|\sin\theta$ 联系起来。 [2]
