Parallelogram law of vector Addition -

If two vector are represented by both magnitude and direction by two adjacent side of parallelogram taken from same point then their resultant is also represented by both magnitude and direction taken from same point but by diagonal  of parallelogram.

- wherein

Represents  law of parallelogram vector Addition

R^{2} = 4F^{2}+3F^{2}+12F^{2}\cos \theta

4R^{2} = 4F^{2}+36F^{2}+24F^{2}\cos \theta

16F^{2}+12F^{2}+48F^{2}\cos \theta = 4F^{2}+36F^{2}+24F^{2}\cos \theta

\therefore 12F^{2} = 24F^{2}\cos \theta

\theta =30^{\circ}

 


Option 1)

30^{0}

Option 2)

60^{0}

Option 3)

90^{0}

Option 4)

120^{0}
