Question: Suppose (vec{D}=vec{A}-vec{B}) where vector (vec{A}) has components (A_{x}=5), (A_{y}=2) and vector (vec{B}) has components (B_{x}=-3, B_{y}=-5). a. What are the (x) - and (y)-components of

Suppose \(\vec{D}=\vec{A}-\vec{B}\) where vector \(\vec{A}\) has components \(A_{x}=5\),

\(A_{y}=2\) and vector \(\vec{B}\) has components \(B_{x}=-3, B_{y}=-5\).

a. What are the \(x\) - and \(y\)-components of vector \(\vec{D}\) ?

b. Draw a coordinate system and on it show vectors \(\vec{A}, \vec{B}\), and \(\vec{D}\).

c. What are the magnitude and direction of vector \(\vec{D}\) ?
