Answer:

D.90°

Explanation:

First remember that the magnitude of a vector , lets say T is the square of the dot product with itself.

This is to say

|T|=√(T×T)

Assume A≠0 and B≠0 then

Square both sides of the below equation

|A+B|²=|A-B|²

(A+B)²=(A-B)²

A(A+B)+B(A+B)=A(A-B)-B(A-B)

A²+AB+AB+B²=A²-AB-AB+B²

A²+2AB+B²=A²-2AB+B²

You notice that  it simplifies to

2AB= -2AB

This means that A×B =0

Hence the angle between the vectors should be 90°

What are the characteristics of Earth’s lithosphere and how does the lithosphere play a role in plate tectonics?
pashok25 [27]
The lithosphere includes the brittle upper portion of the mantle and the crust, the outermost layers of Earth's structure. It is bounded by the atmosphere above and the asthenosphere (another part of the upper mantle) below. Although the rocks of the lithosphere are still considered elastic, they are not viscous

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 protons and an atomic mass of 24. How many neutrons does magnesium have?
JulijaS [17]
An atom is made up of three different particles, which are proton, neutron and electron. The proton and the neutron are located in the nucleus of the atom and they make up mass of the atom. The electron orbit around the nucleus. The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged, thus, for the atom to remain neutral, the number of proton and electron in an atom must be equal. The neutron has no charge.
The atomic mass of an element = number of proton + number of neutron
Atomic mass of magnesium= 24 
Number of proton = 12
Therefore, number of neutron = 24 - 12 = 12.
Thus, the number of neutron = 12.
