    B Ranking velocities from least to greatest

    If I have three velocities and am asked to rank them from least to greatest and they are -10 m/s, 3 m/s and 1 m/s I thought it would be 1 m/s, 3 m/s, and -10 m/s. However, someone told me that because -10 was negative, it would technically be the smallest. I found this strange. Who is right...

    Question about differences in speeds vs velocities.

    Homework Statement Say we have two objects accelerating differently. At time T1 object Ahas a velocity of -10 m/s, and at T2 it has a velocity of 3 m/s At time T1 object B has a velocity of -5 m/s, and at T2 it has a velocity of 7 m/s/ If I am asked to rank both the difference in speed and the...

    Calculating the Cross Product Vector: Is It Possible to Find VxW?

    Okay so, I am wondering if it is possible to find the actual cross product (not the magnitude of the cross product) from this information 1. magnitude of both vectors 2.angle between vectors 3.plane the vectors lie in Is there any way to calculate that cross product vector? Thank you very much...
