Kinematics Question 441

Question: Unit vector perpendicular to vector A=3i^+j^ and B=2i^j^5k^ both it’s

Options:

A) ±3j2k^11

B) ±(i^3j^+k^)11

C) ±j^+2k^13

D) ±i^+3j^k^13

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] The unit vector in normal direction is n^±A×B|A||B|sinθ

Here, A×B=|i^j^k^310215|

=5i^+15j^5k^

|A|=32+12=10

|B|=(2)2+(1)2+(5)2=30

cosθ=A.B|A||B|=123

sinθ=1cos2θ=1123

n^±5i^+15j^5k^10.30.1123 =±(i^3j^+k^)11
