JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 3.1 vectors
Three vectors \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{OP}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{OQ}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{OR}}\) each of magnitude \(A\) are acting as shown in figure. The resultant of the three vectors is \(A \sqrt{x}\). The value of \(x\) is _______.

- A \(5\)
- B \(4\)
- C \(2\)
- D \(3\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\vec{R}=\left(A+\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \hat{i}+\left(A-\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \hat{j}\) \(|\vec{R}|=\sqrt{\left(A+\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2+\left(A-\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2}=\sqrt{3} A\)

- Young's modulus is determined by the equation given by \(\mathrm{Y}=49000 \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\ell} \frac{\text { dyne }}{\mathrm{cm}^2}\) where \(\mathrm{M}\) is the mass and \(\ell\) is the extension of wre used in the experiment. Now error in Young modules \((\mathrm{Y})\) is estimated by taking data from \(M-\ell\) plot in graph paper. The smallest scale divisions are \(5 \mathrm{~g}\) and \(0.02\) \(\mathrm{cm}\) along load axis and extension axis respectively. If the value of \(M\) and \(\ell\) are \(500 \mathrm{~g}\) and \(2 \mathrm{~cm}\) respectively then percentage error of \(\mathrm{Y}\) is _______.JEE Mains 2024 Hard
