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

Technician A says that a tire will increase or decrease approximately 1 psi for each 10°F change of temperature. Technician B sa
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Technician A

Explanation:

It is seen that a tire pressure will increase or decrease 1 psi for each 10^{\circ} F  change in temperature.

For Technician B vehicle pressure should not be adjusted after tire has been warmed as the warm air may increase the pressure but it will be auto adjusted as  the temperature falls to normal .

ahrayia [7]
The reaction of reduction always undergoes with the cathode, the positive ion will migrate towards the cathode with the negative charge whilst the anode always has oxidation reaction. These two types of reaction does not change.

PLS HELP. A flatbed car of a train moves 8 m/s to the east. A jogger runs along to top the flatbed car (which is not very safe)
jonny [76]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation: Given that a flatbed car of a train moves 8 m/s to the east. A jogger runs along to top the flatbed car (which is not very safe) with a velocity of 6 m/s to the west.

Since the jogger is moving in an opposite direction to the direction of the train, and velocity is the distance covered in a specific direction, the jogger will be moving at a velocity relative to the velocity of the train.

Velocity = (8 - 6) m/s

Velocity = 2 m/s

Therefore, the jogger will be moving at the speed of 2 m/s
