Statement $I :$Two forces $(\overrightarrow{{P}}+\overrightarrow{{Q}})$ and $(\overrightarrow{{P}}-\overrightarrow{{Q}})$ where $\overrightarrow{{P}} \perp \overrightarrow{{Q}}$, when act at an angle $\theta_{1}$ to each other, the magnitude of their resultant is $\sqrt{3\left({P}^{2}+{Q}^{2}\right)}$, when they act at an angle $\theta_{2}$, the magnitude of their resultant becomes $\sqrt{2\left({P}^{2}+{Q}^{2}\right)}$. This is possible only when $\theta_{1}<\theta_{2}$.

Statement $II :$ In the situation given above. $\theta_{1}=60^{\circ} \text { and } \theta_{2}=90^{\circ}$ In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
