if `(vecaxxvecb)xx(vecbxxvecc)=vecb, " where " veca, vecb and vecc` are non-zero vectors, then

A

`veca,vecb and vecv` can be coplanar

B

`veca, vecb and vecc` must be coplanar

C

`veca,vecb and vecc` cannot be coplanar

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

`(veca xx vecb) xx (vecb xx vecc) = vecb`
` or [veca vecb vecc] vecb = vecb`
` or [veca vecb vecc] =1 `
therefore, `veca , vecb and vecc` cannot be coplanar.
