(A→ + B→)2 = (C→)2
⇒ A2 + B2 + 2 A→.B→ = C2
⇒ 32 + 42 + 2 A→.B→ = 52
⇒ 2 A→.B→ = 0
⇒ A→.B→ = 0
∴ A→ ⊥ B→
Here A2 + B2 = C2.
Hence, A→ ⊥ B→Correct Option: A
(A→ + B→)2 = (C→)2
⇒ A2 + B2 + 2 A→.B→ = C2
⇒ 32 + 42 + 2 A→.B→ = 52
⇒ 2 A→.B→ = 0
⇒ A→.B→ = 0
∴ A→ ⊥ B→
Here A2 + B2 = C2.
Hence, A→ ⊥ B→

Note that (B→ × A→) ⊥ A→ . Hence their dot product is zero.
Correct Option: B
Note that (B→ × A→) ⊥ A→ . Hence their dot product is zero.

r→ = (a cos ωt)î + (a sin ωt)ĵ
v→ = dr→ = d { (a cos ωt)î + (a sin ωt)ĵ } dt dt
= (-aω sin ωt)î + (aω cos ωt)ĵ
= ω [ (-a sin ωt)î + (a cos ωt)ĵ ]Slope of position vector = a sin ωt = tan ωt a cos ωt & slope of velocity vector = -a cos ωt = -1 a sin ωt tan ωt
∴ velocity is perpendicular to the displacement.
Correct Option: D
r→ = (a cos ωt)î + (a sin ωt)ĵ
v→ = dr→ = d { (a cos ωt)î + (a sin ωt)ĵ } dt dt
= (-aω sin ωt)î + (aω cos ωt)ĵ
= ω [ (-a sin ωt)î + (a cos ωt)ĵ ]Slope of position vector = a sin ωt = tan ωt a cos ωt & slope of velocity vector = -a cos ωt = -1 a sin ωt tan ωt
∴ velocity is perpendicular to the displacement.
