The correct Answer is:
To find the angle between the vector \(\vec{A}\) and the resultant of \(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\) and \(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Resultant Vector We need to find the resultant vector \(\vec{R}\) of \(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\) and \(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\). \[ \vec{R} = (\vec{A} + \vec{B}) + (\vec{A} - \vec{B}) \] ### Step 2: Simplify the Resultant Vector Now, we simplify the expression for \(\vec{R}\): \[ \vec{R} = \vec{A} + \vec{B} + \vec{A} - \vec{B} \] The \(\vec{B}\) terms cancel out: \[ \vec{R} = 2\vec{A} \] ### Step 3: Determine the Angle Between \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{R}\) Now we need to find the angle \(\theta\) between \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{R}\): \[ \theta = \text{angle between } \vec{A} \text{ and } 2\vec{A} \] ### Step 4: Analyze the Relationship Since \(\vec{R} = 2\vec{A}\), \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{R}\) are parallel vectors. The angle between any vector and a scalar multiple of itself is \(0\) degrees. ### Conclusion Thus, the angle between \(\vec{A}\) and the resultant \(\vec{R}\) is: \[ \theta = 0 \text{ degrees} \] ### Final Answer The angle between \(\vec{A}\) and the resultant of \(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\) and \(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\) is \(0\) degrees. ---
