Answer:
the correct answer is option C which is 50 units.
Explanation:
given,
two vector of magnitude = 30 units and of 70 units
to calculate resultants vector = \sqrt{a^2+b^2+2 a b cos\theta}
cos θ value varies from -1 to 1
so, resultant vector
=
a = 30 units and b = 70 units
=
= 40 units to 100 units
hence, the correct answer is option C which is 50 units.
