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

❖ The correct answer choice is B) is multicellular. When something is multicellular, it consists of two or more cells. When something is unicellular, it consists of only one cell and in this case we have 5 million red blood cells so that wouldn't make sense.

A force F=0.12N is aplied on spring and spring elongates by 3cm . specific constant of spring ​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The spring constant is 4 N/m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched/compressed by the application of a force, the relationship between the magnitude of the force applied and the elongation of the spring is given by Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the magnitude of the spring applied

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the spring, relative to its equilibrium position

For the spring in this problem, we have:

F = 0.12 N (force applied)

x = 3 cm = 0.03 m (elongation of the spring)

Therefore, we can solve the formula for k to find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{0.12}{0.03}=4 N/m
