Recall the definition of the cross product with respect to the unit vectors:

i × i = j × j = k × k = 0

i × j = k

j × k = i

k × i = j

and that the product is anticommutative, so that for any two vectors u and v, we have u × v = - (v × u). (This essentially takes care of part (b).)

Now, given a = 8i + j - 2k and b = 5i - 3j + k, we have

a × b = (8i + j - 2k) × (5i - 3j + k)

a × b = 40 (i × i) + 5 (j × i) - 10 (k × i)

… … … … - 24 (i × j) - 3 (j × j) + 6 (k × j)

… … … … + 8 (i × k) + (j × k) - 2 (k × k)

a × b = - 5 (i × j) - 10 (k × i) - 24 (i × j) - 6 (j × k) - 8 (k × i) + (j × k)

a × b = - 5k - 10j - 24k - 6i - 8j + i

a × b = -5i - 18j - 29k

if you're shopping for a rack switch, what component on the switch tells you it can be mounted to a rack?
Tatiana [17]

if you're shopping for a rack switch, the component on the switch that tells you it can be mounted to a rack is the:

  • Rack ears

<h3>What are rack ears?</h3>

Rack ears are L-shaped objects that can be used to hold a rack switch firmly to the support walls. Rack ears are often found at the front panel of the rack which is to be mounted.

When a person purchases a rack switch and finds the rack ears there, it is a signal that the item can be secured firmly to rails. Sometimes, the rack ears also appear as extensions.

What are electrons and how are they involved in creating and electric current?
Artist 52 [7]
Electrons are a stable sub atomic particle that has a negative charge and is found in all atoms and is the main carrier of electricity through solids.

In a metal, some of the electrons can escape from the atoms and are free to move around inside the metal. These electrons are referred to as 'conduction electrons'. 

<span>A current is a flow of charge. In metal a current is the flow of the conduction electrons through the metal. This can occur when connected to battery for example: The battery pumps the conduction electrons around the circuit. </span>

An electric wall clock has a second hand 15 cm long. at the tip of his hand, what is the magnitude of the velocity?
Mila [183]

The velocity of the tip of the second hand is 0.0158 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the angular velocity of the second hand.

We know that the second hand completes one full circle in

T = 60 seconds

Therefore, its angular velocity is:

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{(60)}=0.105 rad/s

Now we can calculate the velocity of a point on the tip of the hand by using the formula

v=\omega r

where

\omega=0.105 rad/s is the angular velocity

r = 15 cm = 0.15 m is the radius of the circle (the distance of the point from the centre of rotation)

Substituting,

v=(0.105)(0.15)=0.0158 m/s
