(a-b) X (a+b)
=  aXa - bXa +aXb -bXb (distributing)

Now, cross product of a vector with itself = 0
so, aXa = 0, bXb = 0

Also, aXb = - bXa

so,
(a-b) X (a+b) = 0 + aXb + aXb + 0
= 2aXb

hence, proved :)

( a - b) x ( a + b ) = 2 a + b ( missing arrows above the letters- shows that a and b are vectors)
Left side:
(a x a) + (a x b) - (b x a) + (b x b)= ( a x b ) - ( b x a ) = ( a x b ) +( a x b )=
2 a x b
It is proved to be true.
Explanation: Vector product of the same vectors is 0 (a x a and b x b ). Also, vector product is anticommutative: a x b = - ( b x a ).

Pls helppp lol i dont understand how to do this. can someone give me an explanation?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the values from high school athletes (the first row of numbers) to the values of college student athletes (the second row). Since we are only looking for male percentages, ignore the women's basketball

Take any of the college values, and divide it by the high school values. After this, multiply by 100 to get a percentage

Example, 56500 ÷ 983600 = 0.05

0.05 * 100 = 5%

You will get 5% for all males sports in this table

A water wheel has a radius of 18 feet. the wheel is rotating at 5 revolutions per minute. find the linear speed, in feet per min
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The linear speed is

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The circumference is equal to

we have

substitute

step 2

Find the linear speed in feet per minute

we know that

The wheel is rotating at 10 revolutions per minute

Convert revolutions to feet

Remember that

One revolution is equal to the circumference of the circle

so

10 revolutions is equal to

therefore

The linear speed is
