For the any two vecrtors vecA and vecB, ...

For the any two vecrtors `vecA` and `vecB`, if `vecA.vecB=|vecAxxvecB|`, the magnitude of `vecC=vecA+vecB` is equal to

A

`sqrt(A^(2)+B^(2))`

B

`A+B`

C

`sqrt(A^(2)+B^(2)+(AB)/(sqrt2))`

D

`sqrt(A^(2)+B^(2)+sqrt2AB)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`vecA.vecB=|vecA xxvecB|` (Given)
`:.ABcos theta= AB sin theta, :.tan theta=1 " or " theta=45^@`
`vecC=vecA+vecB` (Given)
`:. C^2=A^2+B^2+2ABcos 45^@=A^(2) +B^(2)+sqrt(2)AB`
or `C = sqrt(A^2+B^2+sqrt(2)AB)`
