The projection of a vector vec(r )=3hat(...

The projection of a vector `vec(r )=3hat(i)+hat(j)+2hat(k)` on the `x-y` plane has magnitude

A

3

B

4

C

`sqrt(14)`

D

`sqrt(10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Consider only `x` and `y` components: `sqrt(3^(3)+1^(2))=sqrt(10)`
