If `vecA` and `vecB` are two vectors, then which of the following is wrong?

A

`vecA + vecB = vecB + vecA`

B

`vecA * vecB = vecB * vecA`

C

`vecA xx vecB = vecB xx vecA`

D

`vecA - vecB = - (vecB - vecA)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Vector product of two vectors is anti-commutative. i.e., `vec(A)xxvec(B)=-vec(B)xxvec(A)`
