the sum of vectors with the Pythagorean theorem allows us to find that the maximum magnitude occurs for the case:

d) the two vectors are parallel

Vectors are physical quantities that have modulus and direction, for example: force, velocity, acceleration, etc.

Vector algebra has defined the sum, the product by a scalar and by a vector.  The modulus and the direction of the resulting vector must be encoded.

The sum of two quantities is done using the Pythagorean theorem

                  c² = a² + b²

where c is the resultant called hypotenuse, a and b are the summing vectors called legs; trigonometry is used for the direction.

Let's apply this expression to the present case

a, b) perpendicular vectors

              c² = a² + b²

              c = \sqrt{6^2+10^2}

              c = 11.7

the magnitude is the same in both cases, changing the direction of the vector

c) Antiparallel vectors

             

For this case the vectors are collinear, so the sum reduces to the algebraic addition

             c = a-b

             c = 6 -10

             c = -4

d) parallel vectors

             c = a + b

             c = 4 + 10

             c = 14

We can see that the vectors addition gives their maximum and minimum values ​​when the vectors are collinear.

In conclusion using the vectors addition we find that the correct answer is

d) the two vectors are parallel

A 5 μF capacitor is connected to a 12 V battery. The charge on each plate of the capacitor is:
ziro4ka [17]
1 farad = 1 coulomb/volt

5 μF = 5 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb/volt

        = 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb / 12 volts

The charge is 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulombs = 6 x 10⁻⁵  (choice-A)

Which is true about a convex mirror?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The answer is

A. Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are dispersed but will be perceived as originating from a point on the near side of the mirror.

Explanation:

The images formed by a convex mirror is virtual, diminished and images are always formed between the Focal point and the pole of the mirror.

Convex mirrors are used as car driving mirrors because they form upright images and also give wider field of view (dispersed) , and notice that in the car driving mirrors there is a warning "objects appear closer than they are "

Which explains our answer, that images are perceived from a near side
