NEET Physics Vectors MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about vector addition in a plane is correct?
Vector addition is non-commutative; A + B is not equal to B + A.
The resultant vector can be found using both the head-to-tail method and the triangle method.
Vectors can only be added if they have the same direction.
The magnitude of the resultant vector is always greater than the sum of individual vector magnitudes.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The head-to-tail method and the triangle method are both valid graphical methods for vector addition, confirming that the resultant can be determined by either. This is supported by the explanation of vector addition in the NCERT content.
