NEET Physics Vectors Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The sum of two vectors with equal magnitude but opposite direction is zero.
Reason (R): The result of adding two vectors is independent of the order in which they are added.
Both A and R are true and R explains A.
Both A and R are true but R does not explain A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Assertion is true as vectors with equal magnitude but opposite direction cancel each other. Reason is true as vector addition is commutative, but it does not explain the assertion.
