Vector sum ofAandB is maximum, if the angle between them is xx150Find value of x’. About the author Jade
Answer: The angle α which the resultant R makes with A is given by tanα=A+BcosθBsinθ or cos(θ/2)sin(θ/2)=A+Bcosθ2Bsin(θ/2)cos(θ/2) which gives A+Bcosθ=2Bcos2(2θ) or A+B[2cos2(2θ)−1]=2Bcos2(2θ) A=B Reply
Answer:
The angle α which the resultant R makes with A is given by
tanα=A+BcosθBsinθ
or cos(θ/2)sin(θ/2)=A+Bcosθ2Bsin(θ/2)cos(θ/2)
which gives A+Bcosθ=2Bcos2(2θ)
or A+B[2cos2(2θ)−1]=2Bcos2(2θ)
A=B
