In a plane, vectors \(\mathbf{u}\) and \(\mathbf{v}\) satisfy \(|\mathbf{u}| = 5\) cm, \(|\mathbf{v}| = k\) cm and the angle between them is \(\theta\). The vector \(\mathbf{w} = 2\mathbf{u} - \mathbf{v}\) has magnitude 7 cm and is perpendicular to \(\mathbf{u} + \mathbf{v}\). Find the value of \(k\) (to two decimal places) and the angle \(\theta\) in degrees (nearest whole number).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. k = 9.15 cm, θ = 43°
B. k = 8.20 cm, θ = 50°
C. k = 7.55 cm, θ = 60°
D. k = 9.80 cm, θ = 38°
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
k = 9.15 cm, θ = 43°
