Solution:
Formula:
Scalar Product Of Two Vectors:
- Vector component of $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{a}}$ along and perpendicular to $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}}$ are
$$ \left(\frac{\overrightarrow{\mathbf{a}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}}}{|\overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}}|^{2}}\right) \overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}} \quad \text { and } \quad \overrightarrow{\mathbf{a}}-\left(\frac{\overrightarrow{\mathbf{a}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}}}{|\overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}}|^{2}}\right) \overrightarrow{\mathbf{b}} $$
