(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \cdot(\vec{c} \times \vec{d})

is not equal to

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\{(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \times \vec{c}\} \,\vec{d}

Option B (

\{(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \times \vec{c}\} \cdot \vec{d}

) is correct because it is not generally equal to the other expressions, which are equivalent representations of the scalar product of two cross products.

Let

{\mathbf{\hat u}}

and

{\mathbf{\hat v}}

are unit vectors such that

\mathbf{\hat u}\cdot\mathbf{\hat v} = 0

{\mathbf{\hat r}}

is any vector coplanar with

{\mathbf{\hat u}}

and

{\mathbf{\hat v}}

, then the magnitude of the vector

\mathbf{\vec r} \times \left( {\mathbf{\hat u} \times \mathbf{\hat v}} \right)

is Let

\lambda \in \mathrm{R}, \vec{a}=\lambda \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-3 \hat{k}, \vec{b}=\hat{i}-\lambda \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}

((\vec{a}+\vec{b}) \times(\vec{a} \times \vec{b})) \times(\vec{a}-\vec{b})=8 \hat{i}-40 \hat{j}-24 \hat{k}

is equal to Let

\vec{a}=-\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k}

such that

\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=1

and

\vec{a} \times \vec{b}=\hat{i}-\hat{j}
