The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( \hat{i} \cdot (\hat{j} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{j} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{k} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{j}) \), we will use the properties of the dot product and the cross product of unit vectors. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate \( \hat{j} \times \hat{k} \)**: \[ \hat{j} \times \hat{k} = \hat{i} \] This is because the cross product of unit vectors follows the right-hand rule. 2. **Substitute into the expression**: \[ \hat{i} \cdot (\hat{j} \times \hat{k}) = \hat{i} \cdot \hat{i} \] Since \( \hat{j} \times \hat{k} = \hat{i} \). 3. **Calculate \( \hat{i} \cdot \hat{i} \)**: \[ \hat{i} \cdot \hat{i} = 1 \] 4. **Evaluate \( \hat{i} \times \hat{k} \)**: \[ \hat{i} \times \hat{k} = -\hat{j} \] Again, using the right-hand rule. 5. **Substitute into the expression**: \[ \hat{j} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{k}) = \hat{j} \cdot (-\hat{j}) \] 6. **Calculate \( \hat{j} \cdot (-\hat{j}) \)**: \[ \hat{j} \cdot (-\hat{j}) = -1 \] 7. **Evaluate \( \hat{i} \times \hat{j} \)**: \[ \hat{i} \times \hat{j} = \hat{k} \] 8. **Substitute into the expression**: \[ \hat{k} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{j}) = \hat{k} \cdot \hat{k} \] 9. **Calculate \( \hat{k} \cdot \hat{k} \)**: \[ \hat{k} \cdot \hat{k} = 1 \] 10. **Combine all parts**: \[ \hat{i} \cdot (\hat{j} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{j} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{k} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{j}) = 1 - 1 + 1 \] 11. **Final result**: \[ 1 - 1 + 1 = 1 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( \hat{i} \cdot (\hat{j} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{j} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{k} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{j}) \) is \( 1 \).

To solve the expression \( \hat{i} \cdot (\hat{j} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{j} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{k}) + \hat{k} \cdot (\hat{i} \times \hat{j}) \), we will use the properties of the dot product and the cross product of unit vectors. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate \( \hat{j} \times \hat{k} \)**: \[ \hat{j} \times \hat{k} = \hat{i} \] ...
