Answer:

B= -40

The negative sign indicates the reverse direction to that of vector A.That is it is in the third quadrant.

Explanation:

Th resultant vector is obtained by adding the two vectors A and B

A + B= AB

25 + B= -15

25+ 15= -B

-B = 40

B= -40

Vector B has a magnitude of 40 and points in the opposite direction to that of vector A. The negative indicates the opposite direction.

When we reverse the vector B for adding we place a negative sign with the magnitude.

A vector is quantity defined by magnitude and direction. If the direction is left out it becomes a scalar.

What is the relation between acceleration due to gravity and radius of the earth? ​
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

As the earth is an oblate spheroid, its radius near the equator is more than its radius near poles. Since for a source mass, the acceleration due to gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the earth, it varies with latitude due to the shape of the earth.

Formula: g = GM/r2

Dimensional Formula: M0L1T-2

Values of g in SI: 9.806 ms-2
