The $$x-component$$ of the resultant of several $$vectorsa)$$ is equal to the sum of the $$x-components$$ of the $$vectorsb)$$ may be smaller than the sum of the magnitudes of the $$vectorsc)$$ may be greater than the sum of the magnitudes of the $$vectorsd)$$ may be equal to the sum of the magitudes of the vectors

Question

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

Sum of vectors a⇀,b⇀and c⇀is R⇀as shown in the figure.Magnitude of $$x-component$$ of R $$=OMMagnitudfe$$ of $$x-Component$$ of  a⇀$$=$$ OKMagnitude of $$x-Component$$ of b⇀$$=$$  KLMagnitude of $$x-Component$$ of C⇀$$=$$ LMNow OM $$=$$ OK $$+$$ $$KL+LMAlso$$ , OK < OA , KL < AB and BC > LMSo option $$-$$ (2$$ $$) is right
