Q54. Minimum number of vectors of unequal magnitudes which can give zero resultant are
(a) two
(b) three
(c) four
(d) more than four
Ans: (b) three
Explanation:
The minimum number of vectors of unequal magnitudes that can give a zero resultant is determined by the fact that the vectors must form a closed geometric shape, where the sum of all the vectors equals zero.
Two vectors cannot give a zero resultant unless they are of equal magnitude and opposite direction, which contradicts the condition that the vectors must have unequal magnitudes.
Three vectors can give a zero resultant if they form a triangle. This is because the sum of the vectors' directions and magnitudes can balance each other out, resulting in a zero resultant.
Thus, the minimum number of vectors of unequal magnitudes required to give a zero resultant is three.
