A. Conversion metric units of meter (𝒏m, 𝝁m, mm, cm, m, and km)
1. 4m= cm , 8. 400 cm = m
2. 9.3 m = cm , 9. 50 mm = cm
3. 12 km = m , 10. 70,000 mm = m
4. 6,377 = m , 11. 500,000 𝑐𝑚3 = 𝑐𝑚3
5. 2.4 × 103 𝑐𝑚3 = 𝑚3 , 12. 7 𝜇m = 𝑛m

10. If the magnitudes of two vectors are 3 and 4 and the magnitude of their scalar
product is 6, find the angle between the vectors. [𝜃 = 60° ]
11. Find the cross product of vectors 𝐴⃗ = 2𝑖̂ and 𝐵 ⃗⃗ = −2𝑖̂ + 4𝑗̂. [8𝑘̂]
12. Show that vectors 𝐴⃗ = 𝑖̂ − 5𝑗̂ and 𝐵 ⃗⃗ = 2𝑖̂ − 10𝑗̂ are parallel to each other.
(Note: if two vectors are parallel, their cross product must be zero i.e., 𝐴⃗ ×
⃗⃗ = 0).
𝐵
13. Prove that vectors 𝐴⃗ = 2𝑖̂ + 3𝑗̂ − 𝑘̂ and 𝐵⃗⃗ = 6𝑖̂ + 9𝑗̂ − 3𝑘̂ are parallel.
