Forces proportional to AB,BC and 2CA act...

Forces proportional to AB,BC and 2CA act along the sides of triangle ABC in order. Their resultant represented in magnitude and directions as

A

CA

B

AC

C

BC

D

CB

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

For triangle `ABC: vec(AB)+vec(BC)+vec(CA)=vec(0)`
Now `vec(AB)+vec(BC)+2vec(CA)`
`=vec(AB)+vec(BC)+vec(CA)+vec(CA)+vec(0)+vec(CA)=vec(CA)`

Assertion: In projectile motion, the acceleration is constant in both magnitude and direction but the velocity changes in both magnitude and direction. Reason: When a force or accelration is acting in an oblique direction to the direction of velocity then both magnitude and direction of the velocity may be changed.
