The magnitude of displacements a and b are 3m and 4m, respectively, c=a+b. what is the magnitude of c if the angel between a and b is (a) 0 and (b) is 180?

(a) 7 m

(b) 1  m

Explanation:

Given:

The magnitude of displacement  vector 'a' is 3 m

The magnitude of displacement vector 'b' is 4 m.

The vector 'c' is the vector sum of vectors 'a' and 'b'.

(a)

Now, when the angle between the vectors is 0°, it means that the vectors are in the same direction. When vectors are in the same direction, then their resultant magnitude is simply the sum of their magnitudes.

So, magnitude of 'c' when 'a' and 'b' are in same direction is given as:

Therefore, the magnitude of vector 'c' is 7 m when angle between 'a' and 'b' is 0°.

(b)

When the angle between the vectors is 180°, it means that the vectors are exactly in the opposite direction. When the vectors are in opposite direction, then their resultant magnitude is the subtraction of their magnitudes.

So, magnitude of 'c' when 'a' and 'b' are in opposite direction is:

Therefore, the magnitude of vector 'c' is 1 m when angle between 'a' and 'b' is 180°.

it is the second option.

probably not the "magnets"in the magnet, so to speak, are thought to be electrons orbiting in shells. vurrent loops two sides to the loop
