Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Vector

The vector given is 2u2 \mathbf{u}. This means we need to scale the vector u\mathbf{u} by a factor of 2.

Step 2: Scale the Vector

If u=[u1u2]\mathbf{u} = \begin{bmatrix} u_1 \\ u_2 \end{bmatrix}, then 2u=[2u12u2]2 \mathbf{u} = \begin{bmatrix} 2u_1 \\ 2u_2 \end{bmatrix}.

Final Answer

The vector 2u2 \mathbf{u} is obtained by scaling each component of u\mathbf{u} by 2.
