If veca, vecb and vecc are three non-cop...

If `veca, vecb and vecc` are three non-coplanar vectors, then `(veca + vecb + vecc). [(veca + vecb) xx (veca + vecc)]` equals

A

0

B

`[veca vecb vecc]`

C

`2[veca vecb vecc]`

D

`-[veca vecb vecc]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`(veca+ vecb+vecc).[(veca+vecb)xx(veca+vecc)]`
`= (veca+vecb+vecc).[veca xx veca +vecaxx vecc+vecb xx veca +vecbxxvecc]`
`= (veca +vecb +vecc).[veca xx vecc +vecb xx veca+vecb xxvecc]`
`[veca vecb vecc] -[veca vecb vecc]-[veca vecb vecc]`
`-[veca vecb vecc]`
