P, Q and R are three coplanar forces acting at a point and are in equilibrium. Given `P= 1.9318 kg-wt, sin theta_(1)= 0.9659`, the value of R is `(in kg-wt)`

A

`0.9659`

B

2

C

1

D

`1/2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`(P)/(sin theta_(1))=(Q)/(sin theta_(2))=(R )/(sin 150^(@))`
`implies (1.93)/(sin theta_(1))= (R )/(sin 150^(@))`
`implies R=(1.93xxsin150^(@))/(sin theta_(1))= (1.93xx0.5)/(0.9659)=1`
