When `A.B =-|A||B|,` then

A

A and B are perpendicular to each other

B

A and B act in the same direction

C

A and B act in the opposite direction

D

A and B can act in any direction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
(c) We have `A.B=ABcostheta`
Here, `A,B=-AB,i.e.costheta=-1`
`:.theta=180^(@)`
S0 A and B acts in the opposite direction.
