What from the following list of statements about vectors is definitely true? (section 3.3) The magnitude of a vector can be smal

ler than length of one of its components. Magnitude of a vector is positive if it is directed in +x and negative if is is directed in -X direction. Magnitude of a vector can be zero if only one of components is zero. If vector A has bigger component along x direction than vector B, it immediately means, the vector A has bigger magnitude than vector B. Magnitude of a vector can be zero only if all components of a vector are zero.

Answer:

"Magnitude of a vector can be zero only if all components of a vector are zero."

Explanation:

"The magnitude of a vector can be smaller than length of one of its components."

Wrong, the magnitude of a vector is at least equal to the length of a component. This is because of the Pythagoras theorem. It can never be smaller.

"Magnitude of a vector is positive if it is directed in +x and negative if is is directed in -X direction."

False. Magnitude of a vector is always positive.

"Magnitude of a vector can be zero if only one of components is zero."

Wrong. For the magnitude of a vector to be zero, all components must be zero.

"If vector A has bigger component along x direction than vector B, it immediately means, the vector A has bigger magnitude than vector B."

Wrong. The magnitude of a vector depends on all components, not only the X component.

"Magnitude of a vector can be zero only if all components of a vector are zero."

True.

If the forces acting on an object are balanced, wihat must be true about the motion of this object?
wolverine [178]

The correct answer to the question is : D) Be moving at a constant velocity.

EXPLANATION:

As per Newton's first laws of motion, every body continues to be  at state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced forces acting on it.

Hence, it is the unbalanced force which changes the state of rest or motion of a body. Balanced force is responsible for keeping the body to be either in static equilibrium or in dynamic equilibrium.

As per the options given in the question, the last one is true for an object under balanced forces.
