The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the two vectors \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\), we need to analyze the statements provided and determine the relationship between the magnitudes of the vectors when added and subtracted. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Vector Magnitudes**: - The magnitude of the sum of two vectors \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) can be expressed using the formula: \[ |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| = \sqrt{|\vec{A}|^2 + |\vec{B}|^2 + 2|\vec{A}||\vec{B}|\cos\theta} \] where \(\theta\) is the angle between the two vectors. 2. **Magnitude of the Difference of Two Vectors**: - Similarly, the magnitude of the difference of the two vectors is given by: \[ |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| = \sqrt{|\vec{A}|^2 + |\vec{B}|^2 - 2|\vec{A}||\vec{B}|\cos\theta} \] 3. **Comparing the Two Magnitudes**: - We need to compare \( |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| \) and \( |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| \). - The maximum value of \( |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| \) occurs when \(\theta = 0^\circ\) (vectors are in the same direction), and the maximum value of \( |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| \) occurs when \(\theta = 180^\circ\) (vectors are in opposite directions). 4. **Finding Maximum Values**: - When \(\theta = 0^\circ\): \[ |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| = |\vec{A}| + |\vec{B}| \] - When \(\theta = 180^\circ\): \[ |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| = ||\vec{A}| - |\vec{B}|| \] 5. **Conclusion**: - The maximum value of \( |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| \) is always greater than or equal to the maximum value of \( |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| \). - Therefore, we can conclude that: \[ \text{Maximum value of } |\vec{A} + \vec{B}| \geq \text{Maximum value of } |\vec{A} - \vec{B}| \] 6. **Selecting the Correct Statement**: - Based on the analysis, the correct statement is that the maximum value of the magnitude of \(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\) is greater than or equal to the maximum value of the magnitude of \(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\).
