Question:medium

Match List I with List II. 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below : 
 

Show Hint

The vector that goes from the tail of the first to the head of the last is the sum. If you can walk around the whole triangle without ever meeting a head-to-head or tail-to-tail junction, the sum is zero.

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

To solve the given problem, we need to match the vector equations from List I with their corresponding vector representations in List II.

Let's analyze each equation:

  1. \vec{C} - \vec{A} - \vec{B} = 0

    This equation implies that the vector sum \vec{C} = \vec{A} + \vec{B}. This represents a vector triangle where \vec{C} is the resultant of \vec{A} and \vec{B}.

    Correspondence: Matches with Figure (i).

  2. \vec{A} - \vec{C} - \vec{B} = 0

    In this case, \vec{A} = \vec{B} + \vec{C}. This indicates that \vec{A} is the resultant vector of \vec{B} and \vec{C}.

    Correspondence: Matches with Figure (ii).

  3. \vec{B} - \vec{A} - \vec{C} = 0

    For this equation, \vec{B} = \vec{A} + \vec{C}. Thus, \vec{B} is the resultant of vectors \vec{A} and \vec{C}.

    Correspondence: Matches with Figure (iii).

  4. \vec{A} + \vec{B} = -\vec{C}

    This equation denotes that \vec{C} is the vector opposite to the resultant of \vec{A} and \vec{B}.

    Correspondence: Matches with Figure (iv).

By matching each equation with its respective diagram, the correct answer is:

Option: (a) \to (i), (b) \to (ii), (c) \to (iii), (d) \to (iv)
