Explain the parallelogram method for vector addition. Also explain that this is comparable to triangle method.
A particle is situated at the origin of a coordinate system. The following forces begin to act on the particle simultaneously (Assuming particle is initially at rest)
${\vec F_1} = 5\hat i - 5\hat j + 5\hat k$ ${\vec F_2} = 2\hat i + 8\hat j + 6\hat k$
${\vec F_3} = - 6\hat i + 4\hat j - 7\hat k$ ${\vec F_4} = - \hat i - 3\hat j - 2\hat k$
Then the particle will move
The resultant of two vectors $A$ and $B$ is perpendicular to the vector $A$ and its magnitude is equal to half the magnitude of vector $B$. The angle between $A$ and $B$ is ....... $^o$
If the magnitude of sum of two vectors is equal to the magnitude of difference of the two vectors, the angle between these vectors is ........ $^o$
Explain the analytical method for vector addition.
