MCQ
If $\vec{P}+\vec{Q}=\overrightarrow{0}$, then which of the following is necessarily true?
  • A
    $\vec{P}=\overrightarrow{0}$
  • $\vec{P}=-\vec{Q}$
  • C
    $\vec{Q}= 0$
  • D
    $\vec{P}=\vec{Q}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\vec{P}=-\vec{Q}$
b
(b)

Given,

$\overrightarrow{ P }+\overrightarrow{ Q }=0$

$\Rightarrow \overrightarrow{ P }=-\overrightarrow{ Q }$

as given quantities are vectors, the sum of vectors opposite to each other has different signs.
