Question

subtraction of vectors...........................obey the commutative law
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In other words A + B = B + A. Thus I could take vector A and add it to B and the final resultant vector will not change. However, subtracting vectors is NOT Commutative. This is because vector A and B are not the same (most of the time) and a negative sign affects a vector's direction.

Answer 2

The subtraction of vectors does not obey the commutative law.

​Explanation: Subtraction, (even subtraction of scalars), never obeys the commutative law. We have the connection for subtraction.

For e.g.: $(y-x)=-(x-y)$

The minus sign in front is what throws the commutative law for subtraction out of work.
