Among the given pair of vectors, the resultant of two vectors can never be 3 units. The vectors are
Updated On: Dec 26, 2024
- 1 unit and 2 units
- 2 units and 5 units
- 3 units and 6 units
- 4 units and 8 units

The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The magnitude of the resultant of two vectors lies between the range of their sum and the difference. For vectors of magnitudes 4 units and 8 units, the possible resultant must be between:
\(\ \ |8 - 4| = 4 \text{units} \quad \text{and} \quad 8 + 4 = 12 \text{units}.\)

- Find the shortest distance between the lines: \[ \frac{x+1}{2} = \frac{y-1}{1} = \frac{z-9}{-3} \] and \[ \frac{x-3}{2} = \frac{y+15}{-7} = \frac{z-9}{5}. \]
- If \( \overrightarrow{a} + \overrightarrow{b} + \overrightarrow{c} = 0 \), \( |\overrightarrow{a}| = \sqrt{37} \), \( |\overrightarrow{b}| = 3 \), and \( |\overrightarrow{c}| = 4 \), then the angle between \( \overrightarrow{b} \) and \( \overrightarrow{c} \) is:
- The diagonals of a parallelogram are given by \( \mathbf{a} = 2 \hat{i} - \hat{j} + \hat{k} \) and \( \mathbf{b} = \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j} - \hat{k}\) . Find the area of the parallelogram.
- If $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{b}$ are position vectors of point A and point B, respectively, find the position vector of point C on $\overrightarrow{BA}$ such that $BC = 3BA$.
- Verify that lines given by \( \vec{r} = (1 - \lambda) \hat{i + (\lambda - 2) \hat{j} + (3 - 2\lambda) \hat{k} \) and \( \vec{r} = (\mu + 1) \hat{i} + (2\mu - 1) \hat{j} - (2\mu + 1) \hat{k} \) are skew lines. Hence, find shortest distance between the lines.}
