Assertion: The minimum number of non-coplanar Vectors whose sum can be zero, is four
Reason: The resultant of two vectors of unequal magnitude can be zero.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The resultant of two vectors of unequal magnitude cannot be zero for any value of `theta`
`R= sqrt(A^(2) + B^(2)+ 2AB cos theta)`
Reason is wrong.
