Which of the following qauntities is dependent of the choice of orientation of coordinates axes?

A

`vecA + vecB`

B

`A_(x) + B_(y)`

C

`|vecA + vecB|`

D

Angle between `vecA and vecB`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

A vector, its magnitude and the angle between two vectors do not depend on the choice of the orientation of the coordinate axes. `vecA + vecB, |vecA + vecB|`,angle between `vecA and vecB` are independent of the orientation of the coordinate axes.
but the quantity `A_(x) + B_(y)` depends upon the magnitude of the component along x and y-axes, soit will change with change in coordinate axes.
