We cannot apply the commutative law to the vectors subtraction because ` vec A -vec B != vec B - vec A`.
As ` (vec A -vec B) and (vec B - vec A) are acting in opposite directions.
The associative laws to vectors subtraction cannot be applied because
` ( vec A- vec B) - vec C != vec A - (vec B- vec C)`.
