Let `vec(C )= vec(A)+vec(B)` then

A

`|vec(C )|` is always greater then `|vec(A)|`

B

It is possible to have `|vec(C )|lt|vec(A)| and |vec(C )lt|vec(B)|`

C

`C` is always equal to `A+B`

D

`C` is never equal to `A+B`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`vec(C )+vec(A)= vec(B)`
The value of `C` lies between `A-B` and `A+B`
`:. |vec(C )|lt|vec(A)| or |vec(C )|lt|vec(B)|`
