Given: Please see the attached image below.

To be able to subtract vectors, we can either use the parallelogram method or the triangle method. Take note that the only difference is that alternatively adding vectors A and B, we will instead be adding A and – B. When we ponder of vector subtraction, we must anticipate about it in terms of adding a negative vector. A negative vector has the same magnitude as the original vector, however, it has an opposite direction.

So in this problem, the two vectors that will have the largest magnitude are A & F when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other).

If it helps Mark Brainliest.. :)

natural magnetism of the Earth derives from its iron core. This not only provides a useful direction finder for compasses, but actually protects life on Earth by deflecting charged particles in space. The "magnetosphere" is a large region that surrounds the Earth as it moves in its orbit around the Sun. It consists of charged ions that are prevented from directly striking the surface, where they could injure living organisms and harm the environment.When solar eruptions on the Sun increase the flow of charged particles, industries such as power transmission and communication can be still be affected despite the magnetic field

The formula is x = 1/2 at^2 and I have managed to fill in the variables as this. d = 1/2 9.81 m/s^2 1^2

Right, as you mentioned in the comments, you find $d$ by plugging in the different values of $t$ .
