Ans:
a = 9i + 12j
b = 3i + 4j

Explanation:
We have two equations:

<span>a - b = 2c --- (A)
</span><span>a + b = 4c --- (B)

and two unknowns:
a = ?
b = ?

Whereas,
c = 3i + 4j

Add equations (A) and (B):
=> a - b = 2c
     a + b = 4c
----------------------
    2a = 6c

=> a = 3c --- (C)
Put the value of vector c in equation (C):

(C) => a = 3(3i + 4j)
=> a = 9i + 12j

Now that we have vector a, put that vector and vector c in equation (A):
(A)=> (9i + 12j) - b = 2(3i + 4j)

=> b = (9i + 12) - (6i + 8j)
=> b = 3i + 4j

Ans:
a = </span>9i + 12j
b = 3i + 4j<span>

air passing over an airplanes wing travels ,and therefore exerts pressure.than air traveling beneath the wing.
pickupchik [31]
Bernoulli's principle of laminar/lamellar air flow, I think. High flow speed = low pressure, low flow speed = high pressure I think. So, the wings/aerofoils are designed to induce a low pressure on the top side of the wing and a high pressure on the underside of the wing, thus producing an "aerodynamic upthrust" (a static upthrust comes from an object in water via Archimedes) and LIFT. 

Two "particles" of air one going topside and the other underside meet again at the end of their motion across the wing. So, top side has to travel faster than bottom side. So top side has a lower "dynamic pressure" than underside.

And all that for 5 points ????????? (If I'm right, of course ... )

A horse running at 3 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. How fast is the
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/s^{2}

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}

2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

v=u+at

v=3+1.945*5

v=3+9.72

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.

Na+/k+–atpase is considered to be an electrogenic pump because
alexira [117]
<span>Na+/K+ ATPase (sodium pump) is considered to be an electrogenic pump because during every transport cycle, it transports 3 Na+ ions out of the cell and 2 K+ ions into the cell. This leads to the movement of one net positive charge out of the cell making this process electrogenic.</span>

Work output of a large machine in a factory is 89,000 joules, and it’s input is 102,000 joules. Work output of a similar machine
mojhsa [17]
(89000/102000)×100
=87.25%

(92000/104000)×100
=88.46%

efficiency is (output/input)×100
if u get confused which way input and output should go, remember the smaller value is always output and it's above in the fraction, then only it's possible to get a efficiency lower than 100.
