Two vectors and have equal magnitudes. If magnitude of + is equal to two times the magnitude of , then the angle between and will be :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
Let the magnitudes of the two vectors be equal: Let the angle between them be .
-
Use the formula for magnitude of sum and difference:
Since ,
-
Given condition:
Squaring both sides,
Substitute the expressions:
-
Cancel from both sides:
-
Therefore,
-
Checking options:
- A: ❌
- B: ❌
- C: ✅
- D: ❌
Hence, the correct answer is Option C.
