Let and be three vectors. If a vectors satisfies and , then is equal to
- A24
- B32
- C36
- D28
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Given vectors
We need a vector such that
and
We must find
- Use the cross-product condition
From
we get
So is parallel to . Hence
for some scalar .
Thus,
- Use the dot-product condition
Given
so
First compute:
Next,
Therefore,
So,
Now calculate :
- Find the required dot product
We need
So,
- Check options
The value is
So the correct option is B.
