NEET Physics Vectors Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Resultant vector R | (i) Same direction and magnitude |
| (b) Equality of vectors | (ii) Sum of corresponding components |
| (c) Displacement vector | (iii) Path-dependent length |
| (d) Commutative law | (iv) A + B = B + A |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
a-i, b-iv, c-ii, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The resultant vector R is obtained by summing the corresponding components of vectors A and B (ii). Vectors A and B are equal only if they have the same magnitude and direction (i). The displacement vector does not depend on the path taken, while path length is dependent on the actual route taken (iii). The commutative law of vector addition states that A + B is equal to B + A (iv).
