The magnitudes of two vectors are $A$ and $B$ $(A > B)$. If the maximum resultant magnitude of the two vectors is $n$ times their minimum resultant magnitude,then $\frac{A}{B} =$

  • A
    $\frac{n}{n-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{n+1}{n}$
  • C
    $\frac{n^2+1}{n-1}$
  • D
    $\frac{n+1}{n-1}$

Four forces act on a stationary particle at the origin of a coordinate system: $\overrightarrow{F_1} = 3\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 9\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_2} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 16\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_3} = 9\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 18\hat{k}$,and $\overrightarrow{F_4} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 18\hat{k}$. In which plane will the particle move under the influence of these forces?

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 $\theta_{2} = 90^{\circ}$.
