In the following example, we have omitted some beginning and ending material that is standard HTML. See the section showing the complete source file template for more information. We do show all the material between the <QUESTION...> and </QUESTION> tags.
First, we indicate the type of question and give the text of the question itself.
<QUESTION TYPE=Single-Numeric> A two dimensional vector can be written using the notation <VAR>3i+4j</VAR>. What is its magnitude?
<ANSWER ans=5.0>
<HINTS> <HINT> The magnitude of a vector is the square root of the sum of the squares of the magnitudes of its components. <HINT> The components of a vector written in vector notation (i.e., <VAR>Xi+Yj</VAR>) are the terms that are added together (<VAR>Xi</VAR> and <VAR>Yj</VAR>, in this case). <HINT> The magnitude of a component along one of the coordinate axes, such as <VAR>Xi</VAR>, is simply the number <VAR>X</VAR>. </HINTS>
