Answer:
Correct Answer: 22. (c)
Solution:
- (c) When a vector is multiplied with a scalar, the result is a vector.
The cross product of $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ is a vector with its direction perpendicular to both vector $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$. Vector $\vec{A} \times 0$ is a zero vector because 0 is a scalar then also the product is zero but a (scalar $\times$ vector) is also vector.
