No. It is the same as when you subtract normal numbers. a - b is not the same as b - a. However, if you convert the subtraction to an addition, you can use the commutative law - both with normal subtraction and with vector subtraction. That is, a - b, which can be written as a + (-b), is the same as -b + a.

Does the subtraction of two vectors obey the commutative law?
Yes subtraction of vector obeys commutative law because in subtraction of vector we apply head to tail rule
Is commutative law applicable to vector subtraction?
NO
Does commutative law apply in the operation of sets?
Both union and intersection are commutative, as well as associative.
Example of mathematical scientific law?
A simple law is the commutative addition law.
Does addition and subtraction of vectors obey the commutative law?
Addition does. Subtraction, just as with numbers: a - b is not equal to b - a, but you can change a - b to -b + a.Addition does.
