If two forces of equal magnitudes act simultaneously on a body in the east and the north directions,then:

  • A
    the body will displace in the north direction
  • B
    the body will displace in the east direction
  • C
    the body will displace in the north-east direction
  • D
    the body will remain at rest.

$\overrightarrow{A}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ are two vectors of equal magnitudes and $\theta$ is the angle between them. The angle between $\overrightarrow{A}$ or $\overrightarrow{B}$ with their resultant is

If $\vec{P}+\vec{Q}=\vec{0}$,then which of the following is necessarily true?

Statement $I:$ Two forces $(\overrightarrow{P}+\overrightarrow{Q})$ and $(\overrightarrow{P}-\overrightarrow{Q})$,where $\overrightarrow{P} \perp \overrightarrow{Q}$,act at an angle $\theta_{1}$ to each other,and the magnitude of their resultant is $\sqrt{3(P^{2}+Q^{2})}$. When they act at an angle $\theta_{2}$,the magnitude of their resultant becomes $\sqrt{2(P^{2}+Q^{2})}$. This is possible only when $\theta_{1} < \theta_{2}$.
Statement $II:$ In the situation given above,$\theta_{1} = 60^{\circ}$ and $\theta_{2} = 90^{\circ}$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

$A$ vector $\overrightarrow{A}$ when added to the sum of the vectors $(\hat{\imath}-2 \hat{\jmath}+2 \hat{k})$ and $(-2 \hat{\imath}+\hat{\jmath}-\hat{k})$ gives a unit vector along the $y$-axis. The magnitude of the vector $\overrightarrow{A}$ is

If the magnitude of the resultant of two vectors of equal magnitude is equal to the magnitude of either vector, then find the angle between the two vectors in degrees $(^{\circ})$.
