$A$ certain vector in the $xy$-plane has an $x$-component of $4 \,m$ and a $y$-component of $10 \,m$. It is then rotated in the $xy$-plane so that its $x$-component is doubled. Then its new $y$-component is (approximately) (in $\,m$)

Can the magnitude of the rectangular components of a vector be greater than the magnitude of the vector itself? Explain.

The angle made by the vector $\vec{A} = \hat{i} + \hat{j}$ with the $x$-axis is ....... $^\circ$.

Two forces act on point $A$ along the sides $AC$ and $AB$ of a right-angled triangle $ABC$ (where $\angle A = 90^{\circ}$). The magnitudes of these forces are inversely proportional to the lengths of the sides $AC$ and $AB$ respectively. If $F_1 = 1/AC$ and $F_2 = 1/AB$,then the resultant of these forces is proportional to:
