The sum of magnitudes of two forces is 16 N. If their resultant is normal to the smaller force and has a magnitude of 8 N, then two forces are

a
6 N,10 N
b
8 N,8 N
c
4 N,12 N
d
2 N,14 N

detailed solution

Correct option is A

A+B=16Bsinθ=AAnd Bcosθ=8Squaring and adding these two equations, we getB2=A2+64A=6 N and B=10 N
