Three forces start acting simultaneously on a particle moving with velocity v. These forces are represented magnitude and direction by three sides of triangle as shown in figure. The particle will move with velocity

Options

A. less than v
B. grater than v
C. |v| in the direction of the largest force
D. v remains unchanged

Answer

D

Explanation

Since three forces acting on the particle are represented by three sides of a triangle taken in one order, their resultant is zero. So the particle velocity remains unchanged
