Question:
The component of a vector $\vec{r}$ along $x$-axis will have maximum value if
The component of a vector $\vec{r}$ along $x$-axis will have maximum value if
Updated On: May 30, 2022
- $\vec{r}$ is along positive $y$ -axis
- $\vec{r}$ is along positive $x$ -axis
- $\vec{r}$ makes an angle of $45^?$ with the $x$-axis
- $\vec{r}$ is along negative $x$ -axis
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The component of $r =E \cos \theta$
which is maximum when $\theta=0^{\circ}$
So, $r$ will be along positive $X$ -axis for maximum value.
which is maximum when $\theta=0^{\circ}$
So, $r$ will be along positive $X$ -axis for maximum value.
