If the magnitude of the vector product is `sqrt(3)` times the magnitude of the scalar product, the angle between the two vectors is :

A

`pi/2`

B

`pi/6`

C

`pi/3`

D

`pi/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Here `AB=sintheta=sqrt(ABcostheta`
`:. Tantheta=sqrt(3)`
`theta=60^@=pi/3`rad
