Kinematics Question 128

Question: Vector A makes equal angles with x, y and z axis. Value of it’s components (in terms of magnitude of A ) will be

Options:

A) A3

B) A2

C) 3A

D) 3A

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Let the components of A makes angles α,β and γ with x, y and z axis respectively then α=β=γ

cos2α+cos2β+cos2γ=1
3cos2α=1
therefore cosα=13
Ax=Ay=Az=Acosα=A3
