Resultant of two vectors of magnitude P ...

Resultant of two vectors of magnitude `P` and `Q` is of magnitude `Q`.If the magnitude of `vecQ` is doubled now the angle made by new resultant with `vecP` is

A

`30^(@)`

B

`90^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`120^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`Q^(2)=P^(2)+Q^(2)+2PQcos theta` ,
`costheta=-P/(2Q),Tan alpha=(2Q sin theta)/(P+2Q cos theta)`
