What is the opposite of subtract?
Addition (+) is the opposite of subtract (-).
Why the addition of vector A and B is equal to 0?
Because Algebra said so
Why is addition of signed numbers taught before subtraction of the signed numbers?
Addition is simpler than subtraction. Also, it is defined as the opposite of subtraction, so this ... opposite has to be taught first.
What is the column vector?
In mathematics a vector is just a one-dimensional series of numbers. If the vector is written horizontally then it is a row vector; if it's written vertically then it's a column vector.Whether a vector is a row or a column becomes significant usually only if it is to figure in multiplication involving a matrix. A matrix of m rows with n columns, M, can multiply a column vector, c, of m rows, on the left but not on the right.That is, one can perform Mv but not vM. The opposite would be true for a row vector, v, with 1 row and m columns.
In maths what does inverse mean?
The inverse operation is just the opposite operation, for example addition is the inverse of subtraction, and vice verso
Why is Vector resolution the opposite of vector addition?
Vector addition derives a new vector from two or more vectors, and vector resolution is breaking a vector down into its two or more components.
What mathematical operation do you do when two vectors point in opposite directions?
You do vector addition.
Does vector subtraction commutes?
Vector addition is basically similar, with respect to many of its properties, to the addition of real numbers.A + B = B + ASubtraction is the inverse of addition: A - B = A + (-B), where (-B) is the opposite vector to (B).A - B is not usually the same as B - A. Therefore, it is not commutative.However, if you convert it to an addition, you can apply the commutative law: A + (-B) = (-B) + A.
What is the reverse process of vectors addition?
reverse process of vector addition is vector resolution.
What the difference between vector and resultant vector?
Equilibrant vector is the opposite of resultant vector, they act in opposite directions to balance each other.
What is an opposite vector?
It is a vector with the same magnitude (size) but acting in the opposite direction.
What is the vector equal but opposite to the resultant vector?
equilibrant
What is meant by negative vector?
It is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive direction. (A vector is one point in space relative to another.) Negative vector is the opposite direction
What is the difference between resultant and equilibrant vector?
Equilibrant vector is the opposite of resultant vector, they act in opposite directions to balance each other.
What is different between negative vector and null vector?
A null vector has no magnitude, a negative vector does have a magnitude but it is in the direction opposite to that of the reference vector.
Is it necessary that every vector has to obey the law of vector addition?
Yes.
What is the example of head to tail rule?
In addition of vector when vector A whose head is joined to the tail of the vector B and then the tail of the vector A is linked with the tail of the resultant vector and the head of the vector B is joined with the head of the resultant vector..... it means the addition of vectors are also defined the head to tail rule..
