The resultant of \[\vec{A} \text { and } \vec{B}\] makes an angle α with \[\vec{A}\] and β with \[\vec{B}\],
विकल्प
α < β
α < β if A < B
α < β if A > B
α < β if A = B
Advertisements
उत्तर
α < β if A > B
The resultant of two vectors is closer to the vector with the greater magnitude.
Thus, α < β if A > B
