The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

Explanation:

For this problem, we take the standard Cartesian axis, so that:

- along the vertical axis, the north direction is positive, and the south direction is negative

- along the horizontal axis, the east direction is positive, and the west direction is negative

The boat travels in a direction which is 25° west of north. This means that its vertical component is in the north direction, while the horizontal component is in the west direction. Since north = positive and west = negative, the correct option is

The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

Answer from: AM28

The West and North components are both positive numbers.

Answer from: Quest

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
