$ABC$ is an equilateral triangle. Length of each side is $a$ and centroid is point $O$. then $\overrightarrow{O A}+\overrightarrow{O B}+\overrightarrow{O C}=.......$

A

$0$

B

$1$

C

$2$

D

$3$

Solution

$\overrightarrow{O A}, \overrightarrow{O B}$ and $\overrightarrow{O C}$ are three vectors of equal magnitude which are separated by equal angles of $120^{\circ}$. Therefore their resultant is zero.

$\overrightarrow{O A}+\overrightarrow{O A}+\overrightarrow{O C}=\overrightarrow{0}$
