vectors question

How do you do this question? The answer is given as (d) zero. Is it possible to dot a scalar and a vector?

zero hai this is nothing but the scalar triple product ka definition and two vectors are same, matlab two rows same ho gaye therefore determinant ki property laga ke STP = 0 therefore answer is zero

typo hai, cuz if A is another constant, options me hota A without vector sign but nahi h, therefore

it isn't scalar triple product unless it's a printing mistake

Split hota hai

A aint a scalar bhai, a is a vector typo hai wo

Thanks for the reply, what's STP? I'm not aware of properities of determinants either

scalar triple product aapne vectors puri nahi padhi?

haa toh? in the question it's a scalar not a vector... that's where the confusion arises

are nahi nahi, aap maths me ye sab padhoge, without scalar triple product ke samjhau toh fir, A x B will be normal to both vectors A and B toh yeh resultant vector jo aayega, that will be at 90 degrees with A vector toh uske saath dot product karoge toh cos theta wala component aayega, therefore cos 90 = 0 therefore answer is zero

abe its a misprint. if A is scalar then how u can take cross product
