Vectors perpendicular to`hati-hatj-hatk` and in the plane of `hati+hatj+hatk and -hati+hatj+hatk` are (A) `hati+hatk` (B) `2hati+hatj+hatk` (C) `3hati+2hatj+hatk` (D) `-4hati-2hatj-2hatk`

A

`hati + hatk`

B

`2hati + hatj + hatk`

C

`3hati+ 2 hatj + hatk`

D

`-4 hati - 2hatj - 2hatk`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b,d

Let `alpha =hati - hatj -hatk , vecbeta = hati + hatj +hatk`
` and vecgmma = -hati +hatj +hatk`
Let requried vector, `veca=xhati + yhatj +zhatj`
then `vecalpha, vecbeta, vecgamma` are coplanar, i.e.
`|{:(x,y,z),(1,1,1),(-1,1,1):}|=0or y=z`
Also `veca and vecalpha` are perpendicular,
` Rightarrow x-y -z =0`
`Rightarrow x = zy`
