A non vector `veca` is parallel to the line of intersection of the plane determined by the vectors `hati,hati+hatj` and thepane determined by the vectors `hati-hatj,hati+hatk` then angle between `veca and hati-2hatj+2hatk` is = (A) `pi/2` (B) `pi/3` (C) `pi/6` (D) `pi/4`A. `pi//3`B. `pi//4`C. `pi//6`D. none of these |

Answer» Correct Answer - B Clearly `veca` is perpendicular to the normals to the two planes determined by the given pairs of vectors. We have, `vecn_(1)=` normal vector to the plane determined by `hati` and `hati+hatj` `impliesvecn_(1)=hatix(hati+hatj)=hatk` `vecn_(2)=` normal vector to the plane determined by `hati-hatj` and `hati+hatk` `impliesvecn_(2)=(hati-hatj)xx(hati+hatk)=-hati-hatj+hatk` Since `veca` is perpendicular to `vecn_(1)` and `vecn_(2)`. Therefore, `veca=lamda(vecn_(1)xxvecn_(2))=lamda{hatixx(-hati-hatj+hatk)}=lamda(-hatj+hati)` Let `theta` be the angle between`veca` and `hati-2hatj+2hatk`. Then, `cos theta=(lamda(1+2+0))/(lamdasqrt(2)sqrt(1+4+4))=1/(sqrt(2))impliestheta=pi//4`. |
