Two forces having magnitude \(A\) and \(\frac{ A }{2}\) are perpendicular to each other. The magnitude of their resultant is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\frac{\sqrt{5}\,A }{2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\overrightarrow{ F }=\left(\overrightarrow{ F }_1+\overrightarrow{ F }_2\right)\)
\(|\overrightarrow{ F }|=\sqrt{ F _1^2+ F _2^2+2 F _1 F _2 \cos 90^{\circ}}\)
\(=\sqrt{ A ^2+\frac{ A ^2}{4}}=\frac{ A \sqrt{5}}{2}\)
