Question:
A body of mass 10 kg is acted upon by two perpendicular forces, 6N and 8N. The resultant acceleration of the body is
(a) 1 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1 (4/3) w.r.t 6N force
(b) 0.2 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1 (4/3) w.r.t 6N force
(c) 1 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1(3/4) w.r.t 8N force
(d) 0.2 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1(3/4) w.r.t 8N force
Solution:
The correct answers are
(a) 1 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1 (4/3) w.r.t 6N force
(c) 1 m/s2 at an angle of tan-1(3/4) w.r.t 8N force
