The resultant of two vectors $\vec{P}$ and $\vec{Q}$ is $\vec{R}$. If $\vec{Q}$ is doubled,the new resultant vector is perpendicular to $\vec{P}$. What is the magnitude of $\vec{R}$?

  • A
    $\frac{P^2 - Q^2}{2PQ}$
  • B
    $Q$
  • C
    $\frac{P}{Q}$
  • D
    $\frac{P + Q}{P - Q}$

Four forces act on a stationary particle at the origin of a coordinate system: $\overrightarrow{F_1} = 3\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 9\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_2} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 16\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_3} = 9\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 18\hat{k}$,and $\overrightarrow{F_4} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 18\hat{k}$. In which plane will the particle move under the influence of these forces?

The magnitudes of vectors $\overrightarrow{A}$,$\overrightarrow{B}$,and $\overrightarrow{C}$ are $12$,$5$,and $13$ units respectively,and $\overrightarrow{A} + \overrightarrow{B} = \overrightarrow{C}$. Then the angle between $\overrightarrow{A}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ is:

Let $\vec{P} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}$ and $\vec{Q} = -(\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k})$. The angle between $(\vec{P} - \vec{Q})$ and $\vec{P}$ is (in $^\circ$)
