The following statement is either true​ (in all​ cases) or false​ (for at least one​ example). If​ false, construct a specific e

xample to show that the statement is not always true. Such an example is called a counterexample to the statement. If a statement is​ true, give a justification. If v1 and v2 are in set of real numbers R Superscript 4 and v2 is not a scalar multiple of v1​, then ​{v1​,v2​} is linearly independent. Choose the correct answer below. A. The statement is false. The vector v1 could be a scalar multiple of vector v2. B. The statement is false. The vector v1 could be the zero vector. C. The statement is true. A set of vectors is linearly independent if and only if none of the vectors are a scalar multiple of another vector. D. The statement is false. The vector v1 could be equal to the vector v2.

Answer:

  • B. The statement is false. The vector v1 could be the zero vector.

Explanation:

Two vectors \vec{v}_1 and \vec{v}_2 are linearly independent if the equation

\alpha_1 \vec{v}_1 + \alpha_2 \vec{v}_2 = \vec{0}

where \alpha_1 and \alpha_2 are scalars, has only one solution:

\alpha_1 = \alpha_2 = 0.

If there is more than one solution, we say that the vector are linearly dependent.

<h3>Why the answer is B. :</h3>

if \vec{v}_1 = 0 then, \alpha_1 could have any value of the scalar group, as for any scalar \alpha

\alpha * \vec{0} = \vec{0}

So, we get that there is more than one solution.

So, a particular counterexample is:

\vec{v}_1  = (0,0,0,0)

\vec{v}_2 = (1,0,0,0)

as \vec{v}_2 is not an scalar multiple of \vec{v}_2, and the equation

\alpha_1 \vec{v}_1 + \alpha_2 \vec{v}_2 = \vec{0}

has as solution

\alpha_1 = 2

\alpha_2 = 0

as we can see

2 (0,0,0,0) + 0 (1,0,0,0) = \vec{0}

(2* 0,2 *0,2*0,2*0) +  (0*1,0*0,0*0,0*0) = \vec{0}

(0,0,0,0) +  (0,0,0,0) = \vec{0}

(0+0,0+0,0+0,0+0) = \vec{0}

A solar eclipse will occur Group of answer choices

Answer:

3. at new Moon only when the Moon is on the ecliptic.

Explanation:

  • Solar eclipse is the condition when the moon comes in between the sun and the earth. In this condition the moon casts its shadow on the earth.
  • Whether the eclipse is a total solar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse or an annular solar eclipse depends on various factors, but the position of the moon must be on the same orbital plane as that of the earth's orbit around the sun.
  • The sun is about 400 times larger than the moon in size and the sun is almost 400 times farther from the earth than the moon is, this makes it possible for the moon to cover the sun completely leading to a complete solar eclipse.
  • As we know that the orbit of the earth around the sun and the orbit of the moon around the earth is elliptical which leads to a variation in the distance from their rotating centers, so not of every eclipse the moon covers the sun completely developing an annular eclipse.
  • When the moon is close enough to the earth on the ecliptic but not completely aligned in between the sun and the earth leads to a partial solar eclipse.
