View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
900{90^0}
Option B (900{90^0}) is correct because if P→.Q→=0\overrightarrow P \\. \overrightarrow Q = 0 and P→,×,Q→=0\overrightarrow P \\, \times \\, \overrightarrow Q = 0, then both vectors must be null vectors, which means any vector \overrightarrow R is perpendicular to \overrightarrow Q.

What happens, when we multiply a vector by -2 ?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Direction reverses and magnitude is doubled
Option B (Direction reverses and magnitude is doubled) is correct because multiplying a vector by a negative scalar reverses its direction, and multiplying by the absolute value of the scalar (2) doubles its magnitude.

Correct option: C
A⃗⋅B⃗=48\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}=48
Option C (A⃗⋅B⃗=48\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}=48) is not true because the dot product of A⃗\vec{A} and B⃗\vec{B} is actually 3(6) + 4(8) = 18 + 32 = 50, not 48.

A steam boat goes across a lake and comes back (1) On a quite day when the water is still and (2) On a rough day when there is uniform air current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch on both days was same, in which case it will complete the journey in lesser time
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Case (1)
Option A (Case (1)) is correct because the time taken is lesser when the water is still, as the air current increases the time for the return journey more than it decreases the time for the onward journey.

Statement-I: If θ\theta be the angle between a⃗\vec{a} and b→\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}, then tan⁡θ=∣a⃗×b⃗∣a⃗⋅b⃗\tan \theta=\frac{|\vec{a} \times \vec{b}|}{\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}}
Statement-II: a⃗×b⃗\vec{a} \times \vec{b} is perpendicular to a⃗.b⃗\vec{a} . \vec{b}
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Statement-I is true and statement-II is false
Statement-I is true because the tangent of the angle between two vectors is indeed the ratio of the magnitude of their cross product to their dot product. Statement-II is false because the cross product and dot product result in a vector and a scalar, respectively, so they cannot be perpendicular.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
π\pi
The angle between vectors (A×B)(\mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B}) and (B×A)(\mathbf{B} \times \mathbf{A}) is π\pi because (B×A)=−(A×B)(\mathbf{B} \times \mathbf{A}) = -(\mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B}), meaning they are anti-parallel.

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Two identical balls A and B thrown with same velocity ’u’ at two different angles with horizontal attained the same range R. If A and B reached the maximum height h1{h_1} and h2{h_2} respectively, then R=4h1h2R = 4\sqrt {{h_1}{h_2}}
Reason R: Product of said heights.
h1h2=(u2sin⁡2θ2g).(u2cos⁡2θ2g){h_1}{h_2} = \left( {\frac{{{u^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta }}{{2g}}} \right).\left( {\frac{{{u^2}{{\cos }^2}\theta }}{{2g}}} \right) Choose the correct answer:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
