Absolutely ! If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other. Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.
(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war.
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)
This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.
Answer and explanation:
When you are changing a car tire, the most important thing is to keep the total diameter as equal as possible.
The total car tire diameter can be calculated as:

The profile of this tire is 75 (the higher/taller relation), therefore a 5 percent lower profile would be:
pr=0.95·75=71.25
The problem is that the profiles are normalized and the nearest profile available is 70.
If we take a theorical tire with a profile of 71.25:

The theorical tire size should be 205/71 R15.
If we look for a real tire size, we should look for a tire with a diameter nearest to 26.5'' and a profile of 70.
The best option for real tire size is: Tire 225/70 R14 (wheel diameter of 26.4'') or 205/70 R15 (wheel diameter of 26.3'').
Answer:
1) f= 8.6 GHz
2) t= 0.2 ms
Explanation:
1)
- Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
- There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

- Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)
2)
- Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:
where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s
d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
As we know that here no air resistance while ball is moving in air
So here we will say that
initial total energy = final total energy

here we know that
(as it will be on ground at initial and final position)
so we will say

since mass is always conserved
so we will say that final speed of the ball must be equal to the initial speed of the ball
so we have
