If vecA=4hati-3hatj and vecB=6hati+8hatj...

If `vecA=4hati-3hatj` and `vecB=6hati+8hatj` then magnitude and direction of `vecA+vecB` will be

A

`5, tan^(-1)(3//4)`

B

`5sqrt(5), tan ^(-1)(1//2)`

C

`10, tan ^(-1)(5)`

D

`25 ,tan ^(-1)(3//4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

(b) `A+B=10hati+5hatj`
` therefore |A+B|=sqrt(100+25)=5sqrt(5)`
Angle of A.B with X-axis,
`theta=tan^(-1)((5)/(10))=tan^(-1)((1)/(2))`
