Answer:

<em>The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°</em>

Explanation:

<u>Operations With Vectors</u>

Given two vectors in rectangular components:

\vec a=(ax,ay)\ ,\  \vec b=(bx,by)

The sum of the vectors is:

\vec a+\vec b=(ax+bx,ay+by)

The difference between the vectors is:

\vec a-\vec b=(ax-bx,ay-by)

The magnitude of \vec a is:

|\vec a|=\sqrt{ax^2+ay^2}

The angle \vec a makes with the horizontal positive direction is:

\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{ay}{ax}\\

The question provides the vectors:

\vec a=(2,6)

\vec b=(2,22)

\vec d=\vec a-\vec b

Calculate:

\vec d=(2,6)-(2,22)=(0,-16)

The magnitude of \vec d is:

|\vec d|=\sqrt{0^2+(-16)^2}=\sqrt{0+256}=16

The angle is calculated by:

\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{-16}{0}

The division cannot be calculated because the denominator is zero. We need to estimate the correct angle by looking at the components of the vector. Since the x-coordinate is zero and the y-coordinate is negative, the vector points downwards (south), thus the angle must be -90° or 270° if the range goes from 0° to 360°.

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°
