Calculate Liming Requirements. You have a soil sample with a CEC of 10 meq / 100 g soil, a pH of 4.8 and a BS of 37%. You would like to raise this soil to a pH of 6.5, so you need to raise the BS to 65%. You also have a Mg deficiency. Assume 93% purity of your liming agent. During screening of a 100g sample, you had 1.5 g on the 8-mesh screen, and 13.4 g on the 60-mesh screen. Choose the appropriate liming agent and calculate CCE, ECCE, and the tons of lime you need to apply to your 100 acre field.

1) You have three vectors with (∣v⃗∣,θ)(∣v∣,θ) pairs of (11,75∘)(11,75∘), (8,50∘)(8,50∘), and (10,−100∘)(10,−100∘). If you wanted...
1) You have three vectors with (∣v⃗∣,θ)(∣v∣,θ) pairs of (11,75∘)(11,75∘), (8,50∘)(8,50∘), and (10,−100∘)(10,−100∘). If you wanted to add a fourth vector to those first three such that the sum of all four vectors were 0, what would that fourth vector be? Give your answer as a (vx,vy)(vx​,vy​) pair. Give your answer to 1 decimal point. Then show it as a (∣v⃗∣,θ)(∣v∣,θ) pair.
