What is the vector product of two equal vectors ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The vector product of two equal vectors leads to a zero vector or null vector, i.e., the resultant vector has magnitude equal to zero without any fixed direction . For any vector `vecA, |vecAxxvecA|=(A)(A) sin 0^@ =0`
`therefore vecAxxvecA=vec0`.
