Two vectors of equal magnitude P are inc...

Two vectors of equal magnitude `P` are inclined at some angle such that the difference in magitude of resultant and magnitude of either of the vectors is `0.732` times either of the magnitude of vectors. If the angle between them is increased by half of its initial value then find the magnitude of difference of the vectors

A

`2P`

B

`sqrt2P`

C

`3P`

D

`sqrt3P`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`R-P=0.732P,R=1.732P=sqrt3P`
But `2P.cos(theta/2)=sqrt3P,theta^(1)=theta+theta/2`
