The correct Answer is:
To find the vector \(\vec{X}\) that satisfies the equations \(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{X} = c\) and \(\vec{A} \times \vec{X} = \vec{B}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information We are given: - \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\) are non-zero vectors. - \(\vec{A} \perp \vec{B}\) (which means \(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = 0\)). - \(c\) is a non-zero scalar. ### Step 2: Write the Equations The equations we need to solve are: 1. \(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{X} = c\) (Equation 1) 2. \(\vec{A} \times \vec{X} = \vec{B}\) (Equation 2) ### Step 3: Use the Cross Product Identity From Equation 2, we can use the vector triple product identity: \[ \vec{A} \times (\vec{A} \times \vec{X}) = \vec{A} (\vec{A} \cdot \vec{X}) - \vec{X} (\vec{A} \cdot \vec{A}) \] Substituting Equation 1 into this identity gives: \[ \vec{A} \times \vec{B} = \vec{A} \cdot \vec{X} \cdot \vec{A} - \vec{X} \cdot |\vec{A}|^2 \] Since \(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{X} = c\), we can rewrite it as: \[ \vec{A} \times \vec{B} = c \cdot \vec{A} - |\vec{A}|^2 \cdot \vec{X} \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the Equation Now, we can rearrange this equation to solve for \(\vec{X}\): \[ |\vec{A}|^2 \cdot \vec{X} = c \cdot \vec{A} - \vec{A} \times \vec{B} \] Thus, we have: \[ \vec{X} = \frac{c \cdot \vec{A} - \vec{A} \times \vec{B}}{|\vec{A}|^2} \] ### Step 5: Final Expression for \(\vec{X}\) The final expression for the vector \(\vec{X}\) is: \[ \vec{X} = \frac{c \cdot \vec{A} - \vec{A} \times \vec{B}}{|\vec{A}|^2} \]
