Three vectors A, B and C are related via A+B=C. Which of the following diagrams illustrates these vectors?

Expert Solution

This problem is about the triangle law of vector addition.

To perform an addition , the following steps are to be done

Draw the vector A
Now, taking the front tip of A as the starting point, draw the vector B (the tail of vector B should touch the head of A)
Now, draw a vector, which has its tail at the tail of vector A and head at the head of vector B. This new vector is the sum of A and B.

So, the image where the head of C is at the head of B and the tail of C is at the tail of A is the correct answer.

The correct answer is option C
