What is the angle between `vecP` and the resultant of `(vecP + vecQ)` and `(vecP - vecQ)`

A

Zero

B

`tan^(-1)(P//Q)`

C

`tan^(-1)(Q//P)`

D

`tan^(-1)(P-Q)//(P+Q)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Resulant `vec(R )=vec(P)+vec(Q)+vec(P)-vec(Q)= 2vec(P)`
The angle between `vec(P)` and `2vec(P)` is zero.
