The component of a vector `vec(r)` along x- axis will have a maximum value if

A

`vec(r)` is along +ve x- axis

B

`vec(r)` is along +ve y-axis

C

`vec(r)` is along -Ve y- axis

D

`vec(r)` makes an angle of `45^(2)` with the x- axis

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

: A vector has a maximum value along its own direction only . Hence the component of a vector `vec(r )` along x- axis will have a maximum value if `vec(r )`is along positive x- axis
