    When forces \[{{F}_{1}},{{F}_{2}}\]and \[{{F}_{3}},\]are acting on a particle of mass m such that\[{{F}_{2}}\]and\[{{F}_{3}}\]are mutually perpendicular, then the particle remains stationary. If the force \[{{F}_{1}}\]is now removed then the acceleration of the particle is:

    A) \[\frac{{{F}_{1}}}{m}\]                              

    B) \[\frac{{{F}_{2}}{{F}_{3}}}{m{{F}_{1}}}\]      

    C)      \[\frac{({{F}_{2}}-{{F}_{3}})}{m}\]        

    D)      \[\frac{{{F}_{3}}}{m}\]   

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The particle remains stationary under the action of three forces \[{{\vec{F}}_{1}}={{\vec{F}}_{2}}\]and\[{{\vec{F}}_{3}},\]it means resultant force is zero. \[{{\vec{F}}_{1}}=-({{\vec{F}}_{2}}+{{\vec{F}}_{3}})\] Since in second case \[{{F}_{1}}\]is removed (in terms of magnitude we are taking now), the forces acting are \[{{F}_{2}}\]and \[{{F}_{3}}\]the resultant of which has the magnitude as \[{{F}_{1}},\]so acceleration of particle is \[\frac{{{F}_{1}}}{m}\]in the direction opposite to that of\[{{\vec{F}}_{1}}.\] Hence, the correction option is [a].
