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°

What does the mass defect represent?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C.) The amount of mass used up in holding a nucleus together.

Explanation:

The mass defect of a nucleus represents the mass of the energy binding the nucleus. It is the difference between the mass of the nucleus and the sum of the masses of the nucleons of which it is composed.

Describe the principle of conversation of energy:
exis [7]

Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.

Practical examples include:

- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy

- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy

- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc
