To find the value of the triple product \(\vec{A} \cdot (\vec{B} \times \vec{A})\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Triple Product The expression \(\vec{A} \cdot (\vec{B} \times \vec{A})\) represents the dot product of vector \(\vec{A}\) with the cross product of vectors \(\vec{B}\) and \(\vec{A}\). ### Step 2: Analyze the Cross Product The vector \(\vec{B} \times \vec{A}\) produces a vector that is perpendicular to both \(\vec{B}\) and \(\vec{A}\). This means that the resulting vector \(\vec{C} = \vec{B} \times \vec{A}\) is orthogonal to \(\vec{A}\). ...
