Application +4 | -1
If a=i+j−k,b=2i+3j+k\mathbf{a}=\mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k}, \mathbf{b}=2 \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}+\mathbf{k} and c=i+αj\mathbf{c}=\mathbf{i}+\alpha \mathbf{j} are coplanar vectors, the value of α\alpha is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
43\frac{4}{3}
Option C (43\frac{4}{3}) is correct because the scalar triple product of coplanar vectors is zero, leading to the equation that solves for α=43\alpha = \frac{4}{3}.

A vector a⃗{\mathbf{\vec a}} has components 2  p2\;p and 1 with respect to a rectangular cartesian system. This system is rotated through a certain angle about the origin in the counter clockwise sense, if this respect to new system a⃗{\mathbf{\vec a}} has components p+1p + 1 and 1, then If a⃗,b⃗\vec{a}, \vec{b} and c⃗\vec{c} are three mutually perpendicular unit vetors and d⃗\vec{d} is a unit vector which makes equal angles with a→,b→\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} ānd c→\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}} then the value of ∣a→+b→+c→+d→∣2|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}+\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}+\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}+\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}|^2 The non-zero vectors are a⃗,b⃗\vec{a}, \vec{b} and c⃗\vec{c} are related by a⃗=8b⃗\vec{a}=8 \vec{b} and c⃗=−7b⃗\vec{c}=-7 \vec{b}.
