Find the angle between resultant of2\overset{\to}{P} and \overset{\to}{Q} and \overset{\to}{Q}, ________The sum of two forces → P and → Q is → R such that | → R | = | → P |. Find the angle between resultant of2 → P and → QThe sum of two forces → P and → Q is → R such that | → R | = | → P |. Find the angle between resultant of2 → P and → Q

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The sum of two forces → P and → Q is → R such that | → R | = | → P |. Find the angle between resultant of2 → P and → Q
So angle between (2P→+Q→)\left(2\overset{\to}{P} + \overset{\to}{Q}\right) and Q→\overset{\to}{Q} is 90o{90}^{o}


Alternate solution


\left|\overset{\to}{\text{P}} + \overset{\to}{\text{Q}}\right| = \left|\overset{\to}{\text{P}}\right|
P2+Q2+2PQcosθ=P2{P}^{2} + {Q}^{2} + 2PQcos \theta = {P}^{2}
⇒Q+2PQcosθ=O⇒ Q + 2PQcos \theta = O
⇒cosθ=−⇒ cos \theta = -\dfrac{Q}{2P}
The sum of two forces → P and → Q is → R such that | → R | = | → P |. Find the angle between resultant of2 → P and → Q
tanα=tan \alpha =\dfrac{2Psin \theta}{2Pcos \theta + Q} =∞\infty
∵[2Pcosθ+Q=0]∵ \left[2Pcos \theta + Q = 0\right]
α=90o\alpha = {90}^{o}
