Let we have three vectors A, B and C, then according to distributive law with respect to addition.
Correct answer: B. Option B
- A. Option A
- B. Option B
- C. Option C
- D. Option D
Explanation
According to the distributive law with respect to addition for vectors, the sum of vectors A and B multiplied by a scalar C is equal to the sum of the scalar multiplication of A by C and the scalar multiplication of B by C. This law indicates that you can distribute the scalar C across the sum of vectors A and B by applying scalar multiplication individually to each vector and then adding the results.

About Vectors and Equilibrium
Vectors have magnitude and direction, unlike scalars, and are combined by head-to-tail or parallelogram methods. Work covers rectangular components, equilibrium when the resultant force is zero, the scalar product for work and projections, and the vector product for torque and cross-product direction using the right-hand rule.
