|λ| times the magnitude of vector \(\vec{a}\) is denoted as ______(a) |λ\(\vec{a}\)|(b) λ|\(\vec{a}\)|(c) |λ|\(\vec{a}\)(d) λ\(\vec{a}\)I have been asked this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.My query is from Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar topic in division Vector Algebra of Mathematics – Class 12

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (a) |λ\(\vec{a}\)|

The explanation is: |λ| TIMES the magnitude of VECTOR \(\vec{a}\) is denoted as |λ\(\vec{a}\)| = |λ||\(\vec{a}\)|

As we KNOW that the magnitude of vector \(\vec{a}\) is denoted by |\(\vec{a}\)|, if we multiply the magnitude of vector \(\vec{a}\) with magnitude of λ we get |λ\(\vec{a}\)|.
