Answer:

magnitude of A − B =  15.81 km

Explanation:

Vector A points in the negative y-direction and has a magnitude of 5 km. Vector B points in the positive x-direction and has a  magnitude of 15 km.

According to Cartesian coordinate system, the resultant will start either from tail of A and ends at head of B and vice-versa.

A(0,-5)

B(15,0)

A - B = (-15 i - 5 j )

Magnitude of the vector is given by

|A - B| = \sqrt{(-15)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}

|A - B| = \sqrt{250}

|A - B| = 15.81 km

Difference between freefall and weightlessness.​
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Differences between freefall and weightlessness are as follows:

<h3><u>Freefall</u></h3>
  • When a body falls only under the influence of gravity, it is called free fall.
  • Freefall is not possible in absence of gravity.
  • A body falling in a vacuum is an example of free fall.

<h3><u>Weightlessness</u></h3>
  • Weightlessness is a condition at which the apparent weight of body becomes zero.
  • Weightlessness is possible in absence of gravity.
  • A man in a free falling lift is an example of weightlessness.

Hope this helps....

Good luck on your assignment....

Vector A has components Ax=1.30cm, Ay= 2.25cm; vector B has components Bx=4.10cm, By=-3.75cm.
geniusboy [140]
We  are given with the x and y components of Vector A and B. In this case, we compute the resultant of both components of each vector. The vector is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the components. A is equal to 2.60 cm. B is equal to 5.56 cm. B is found in quadrant Iv and has an angle of 42.447 degrees as a terminal angle. A has an angle of 59.98 degrees. 
a. 5.6082 < -15.53 degreesc. 6.63 <-64.98 degreesb. x = 6.63 cos -64.98 degrees = 2.80   y = 6.63 sin -64.98 degrees = -6.00
