Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the given vectors and their properties
  • Given vectors: \( \mathbf{u} \) and \( \mathbf{v} \)
  • Length of \( \mathbf{u} \) is 2
Step 2: Apply the Gram-Schmidt process to obtain orthogonal vectors
  • The Gram-Schmidt process will generate an orthogonal set of vectors from \( \mathbf{u} \) and \( \mathbf{v} \).
  1. Let \( \mathbf{u}_1 = \mathbf{u} \)
  2. Compute the projection of \( \mathbf{v} \) onto \( \mathbf{u}_1 \): \[ \text{proj}_{\mathbf{u}_1} \mathbf{v} = \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u}_1}{\mathbf{u}_1 \cdot \mathbf{u}_1} \mathbf{u}_1 \]
  3. Subtract this projection from \( \mathbf{v} \) to get the orthogonal vector \( \mathbf{u}_2 \): \[ \mathbf{u}_2 = \mathbf{v} - \text{proj}_{\mathbf{u}_1} \mathbf{v} \]
Step 3: Normalize the orthogonal vectors
  • Normalize \( \mathbf{u}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{u}_2 \) to get an orthonormal set of vectors.
  1. Normalize \( \mathbf{u}_1 \): \[ \mathbf{e}_1 = \frac{\mathbf{u}_1}{\|\mathbf{u}_1\|} \] Given \( \|\mathbf{u}_1\| = 2 \), we have: \[ \mathbf{e}_1 = \frac{\mathbf{u}}{2} \]

  2. Normalize \( \mathbf{u}_2 \): \[ \mathbf{e}_2 = \frac{\mathbf{u}_2}{\|\mathbf{u}_2\|} \]

Final Answer

  • The orthogonal vectors obtained from \( \mathbf{u} \) and \( \mathbf{v} \) via the Gram-Schmidt process are \( \mathbf{u}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{u}_2 \).
  • The orthonormal vectors are \( \mathbf{e}_1 = \frac{\mathbf{u}}{2} \) and \( \mathbf{e}_2 = \frac{\mathbf{u}_2}{\|\mathbf{u}_2\|} \).
