Absolutely !  If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other.  Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.

(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war. 
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)

This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.

Answer:

Electron shell

Nucleus

Neutrons

Explanation:

An atom is made up of three fundamental subatomic particles which are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

  • Protons are the positively charged particles. Neutrons do not carry any charges.
  • Both protons and neutrons are found in the tiny nucleus at the center of that atom.
  • The electrons are negatively charged.
  • They are found outside the nucleus in electronic shells.
