How many minimum number of coplanar vectors having different magnitudes can be added to give zero resultant
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Let
and
are two vectors having resultant
i.e.
.
This means all the three forces
and
lie in the same plane.
Therefore, if there be a vector acting exactly opposite of
with two other vectors
and
, the net force is zero but they must be coplanar
