Vectors P and Q have equal magnitude P and angle between them is Ф.
Magnitude of vector P - Q = SqRoot[ P² + P² - 2 P P Cos Ф ]
= √2 P SqRoot[ 1 - Cos Ф ] = √2 P SqRoot[ 2 Sin² Ф/2 ] = 2 P SinФ/2
Magnitude of vector P - Q = SqRoot[ P² + P² - 2 P P Cos Ф ]
= √2 P SqRoot[ 1 - Cos Ф ] = √2 P SqRoot[ 2 Sin² Ф/2 ] = 2 P SinФ/2

Answer:
The magnitude of difference of two vectors is
Explanation:
Given that,
The magnitude of both the vectors=P
The Angle between two vectors= θ
We are required to find the magnitude of difference between two vectors.
According to parallelogram law,The magnitude of difference between two vectors A and B making an angle θ is given as
Therefore,According to our given problem,the magnitude is
Therefore,the magnitude of difference of two vectors is
