What can be the value of the vector sum of the forces 10N and 6N ?

Open in App
Solution

The maximum value of vector sum(angle between vectors is 0 degree) is equal to the sum of its magnitude. Here the sum of the magnitude =10+6 = 16

The minimum value can(angle between vectors is 180 degree) be obtained by subtracting one magnitude from the other. So the minimum value = 10-6=4

Force should lie in between maximum and minimum resultant of vectors.

take the value which is in between 4N to 16N
