If the vectors `vec(a)` and `vec(b)` are such that `|vec(a) + vec(b)|=|vec(a)|` then does it imply that:

A

`vec(b)=0`

B

`vec(a).vec(b)` are antiparallel

C

`vec(a).vec(b)` are perpendicular

D

`vec(a).vec(b)le0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here the correct choice is (b) i.e. `(vec(a)vec(b))` are anti-parallel
