Answer:

A+B; 5√5 units, 341.57°

A-B; 5√5 units, 198.43°

B-A; 5√5 units, 18.43°

Explanation:

Given A = 5 units

By vector notation and the axis of A, it is represented as -5j

B = 3 × 5 = 15 units

Using the vector notations and the axis, B is +15i. The following vectors ate taking as the coordinates of A and B

(a) A + B = -5j + 15i

A+B = 15i -5j

|A+B| = √(15)²+(5)²

= 5√5 units

∆ = arctan(5/15) = 18.43°

The angle ∆ is generally used in the diagrams

∆= 18.43°

The direction of A+B is 341.57° based in the condition given (see attachment for diagrams

(b) A - B = -5j -15i

A-B = -15i -5j

|A-B|= √(15)²+(-5)²

|A-B| = √125

|A-B| = 5√5 units

The direction is 180+18.43°= 198.43°

See attachment for diagrams

(c) B-A = 15i -( -5j) = 15i + 5j

|B-A| = 5√5 units

The direction is 18.43°

See attachment for diagram

Determine the acceleration that results when a 12 N net force is applied to a 3 kg object
lord [1]

Answer:

<h2>4 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{12}{3}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4 m/s²</h3>

Answer:

They are caused by outward fluctuations of the sun's magnetic field.

They tend to occur during active periods of the solar cycle.

Explanation:

While sun spots will appear darker than the surrounding surface, flares will tend to appear brighter. CME's are associated with massive flares.

Differences between work against friction and work against gravity.
Goshia [24]

Friction is the force that is resisting the motion of an object so it will always point in the opposite direction of that of movement. ... The force of gravity points downwards . So when you do work against gravity it means that the force acting on that object points in the upward direction .
