Vedclass · Answer

(A) Given that the position vector of point $C$ with respect to $B$ is $\overrightarrow{BC} = i + j$. Similarly,the position vector of $B$ with respect to $A$ is $\overrightarrow{AB} = i - j$. Using the triangle law of vector addition,the position vector of $C$ with respect to $A$ is given by $\overrightarrow{AC} = \overrightarrow{AB} + \overrightarrow{BC}$. Substituting the given values,we get $\overrightarrow{AC} = (i - j) + (i + j) = 2i$. Therefore,the correct option is $A$.

The position vector of a point $C$ with respect to $B$ is $i + j$ and that of $B$ with respect to $A$ is $i - j$. The position vector of $C$ with respect to $A$ is
