True False[1 Marks ]

Question 11 Mark

State True or False for the following:
Position vector of a point $\vec{\text{P}}$ is a vector whose initial point is origin.

Answer

True.Solution:
Since, $\vec{\text{P}}=\overrightarrow{\text{OP}}$ displacement of vector $\vec{\text{P}}$ from origin.

Question 21 Mark

Answer the following as true or false.
Two collinear vectors are always equal in magnitude.

Answer

False $[\because\ \vec{a}\ \ \text{and}\ 2\vec{a}$ are collinear vectors but $ \Big|2\vec{a}\Big|=2\Big|\vec{a}\Big|]$

Question 41 Mark

State True or False for the following:
If $|\vec{\text{a}}|=|\vec{\text{b}}|,$ then necessarily it implies $\vec{\text{a}}=\pm\vec{\text{b}}.$

Answer

False.Solution:
Consider $\vec{\text{a}}=2\hat{\text{i}}+2\hat{\text{j}}-2\hat{\text{k}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}=2\hat{\text{i}}-\hat{\text{j}}-2\hat{\text{k}}$
Clearly $|\vec{\text{a}}|=|\vec{\text{b}}|,$ but $\vec{\text{a}}=\pm\vec{\text{b}}$
So, the given statement false.

Question 71 Mark

State True or False for the following:
If $|\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}|=|\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}|,$ then the vector $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}$ are orthogonal.

Answer

True.Solution:
Given, $|\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}|=|\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}|$
$\Rightarrow|\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}|^2=|\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}|^2$
$\Rightarrow|\vec{\text{a}}|^2+|\vec{\text{b}}|^2+2\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}=|\vec{\text{a}}|^2+|\vec{\text{b}}|^2-2\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}$
$\Rightarrow2\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}=-2\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}$
$\Rightarrow4\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}=0$
$\Rightarrow\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}=0$
Hence, $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}$ are orthogonal.

Question 81 Mark

State True or False for the following:
If $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}$ are adjacent sides of a rhombus, then $\vec{\text{a}}\cdot{\text{b}}=0.$

Answer

False.Solution:
If $\vec{\text{a}}\cdot{\text{b}}=0,$ then $\vec{\text{a}}$ and ${\text{b}}$ are perpendicular to each other.
In rhombus, adjacent sides are not necessarily perpendicular.

Question 91 Mark

State True or False for the following:
The formula $(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}})=\vec{\text{a}}^2+\vec{\text{b}}^2+2\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}$ is valid for non-zero vectors $\vec{\text{a}}$ and $\vec{\text{b}}.$

Answer

False.Solution:
$(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}})=(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}})\cdot(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}})$
$(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}})=\vec{\text{a}}^2+\vec{\text{b}}^2+2\vec{\text{a}}\cdot\vec{\text{b}}$

Question 101 Mark

Two collinear vectors having the same magnitude are equal.

Answer

False, As two collinear vectors are equal only if they have same length and same sense.

Question 111 Mark

Answer the following as true or false.
Two collinear vectors having the same magnitude are equal.

Answer

False $[\because$ Vectors $\vec{a}\ \text{and}-\vec{a}\left\{=(-1) \vec{a}=\vec{ma}\right\}$ are collinear vectors and $\Big|\vec{a}\Big|=\Big|-\vec{a}\Big|$ but we know that $\vec{a}\neq-\vec{a}$ because their directions are opposite.]

Question 121 Mark

Answer the following as true or false.
Two vectors having same magnitude are collinear.

Answer

False $[\because\ \Big|\hat{i}\Big|=\Big|\hat{j}\Big|=1$ bat $\hat{i}\ \text{and}\ \vec{j}$ are vectors along x - axis (OX) and y - axis (OY) respectively]
