Three forces are acting on a particle of mass . The forces and are applied perpendicularly so that particle remains at rest. If the force is removed, then the acceleration of the particle is
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
When the force is removed, the particle starts accelerating because of the resultant force between and .
The resultant force can be calculated as follows:
Hence, the acceleration of the particle is given by
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
