Vectors Question 199

Question: At what angle should the two forces 2P and $ \sqrt{2},P $ act so that the resultant force is $ P\sqrt{10},? $

Options:

A) $ 45{}^\circ $

B) $ 60^{o} $

C) $ 90^{o} $

D) $ 120^{o} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] $ P\sqrt{10}=,\sqrt{4P^{2}+,2P^{2}+4\sqrt{2}P^{2},\cos \theta } $
$ \

Therefore $ $ \theta =,45^{o} $
