If `veca, vecb, vecc, vecd` are coplanar vectors, then `(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)=`

A

`1`

B

`veca`

C

`vecb`

D

`vec0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Since `veca, vecb, vecc, vecd` are coplanar vectors. Therefore, `vecaxxvecb` and `veccxxvecd` are vectors normal to the plane containing the four vectors.
`:.vecaxxvecb` is parallel `veccxxvecdimplies(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)=vec0`
ALITER We have
`(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)={(vecaxxvecb).vecd}vecc-{(vecaxxvecb).vecc}vecd`
`implies(vecaxxvecb)xx(vecxvecd)=[(veca, vecb, vecd)]vecc-[(veca, vecb, vecc)]veca`
`implies(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)=0xxvecc-0xxvecd [ :'veca, vecb, vecc, vecd` are coplanar `]`
`implies(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)=vec0`
