  1. A cannot be predicted
  2. B always are equal to each other
  3. C are equal to each other in magnitude
  4. D are not equal to each other in magnitude
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) are equal to each other in magnitude

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the two forces in vector form be A→ and B→. Then their vector sum is A→+B→ and vector difference is A→-B→. As A→+B→ and A→-B→ are perpendicular to each other, thusA→+B→·A→-B→=0…
