The magnitude ofxandycomponents ofA→are7and6respectively. Also, the magnitudes ofxandycomponents ofA→+B→are 11 and 9 respectively. Calculate the magnitude of vectorB→.

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Given,A→=7i^+6j^

LetB→=b1i^+b2j^......(i)

Given that,A→+B→=11i^+9j^

Or7+b1i^+6+b2j^=11i^+9j^

Comparing the scalar component ofi^andj^

7+b1=11and 6+b2=9

⇒b1=4andb2=3

∴  From Equation. (i),

B→=4i^+3j^

B→=42+32=25=5
