Q125 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2021 (04 Aug Shift 2) · Physics

The y-component of vector A→ is +3.0 m. If A makes an angle of 30° counter-clockwise from the positive y- axis, the magnitude of A→ is (assume A→ is in x-y plane)

  • Correct answer
    A
    23 m
  • B
    11 m
  • C
    15 m
  • D
    21 m

Solution

Figure

From the above diagram, we can make the direction of vector now we can find the magnitude of a vector from the order of component, 
A=A'cos300⇒A'=332=23 m.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
