The unit vector which is orthogonal to the vector

3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k}

and is coplanar with vectors

2 \hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}

and

\hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k},

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}(3 \hat{j}-\hat{k})

Option C (

\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}(3 \hat{j}-\hat{k})

) is correct because it represents the unit vector orthogonal to the given vector and coplanar with the other two, found using vector triple product.
