If `|veca|=2 and |vecb|=3 and veca.vecb=0, " then " (vecaxx(vecaxx(vecaxx(vecaxxvecb))))` is equal

A

`48 hatb`

B

`-48 hatb`

C

`48 hata`

D

`-48 hata`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
`(vecaxx (veca xx (veca xx (vecaxx vecb ))))`
` = (vecaxx (veca xx ((veca .vecb)veca -(veca .vecb)vecb)))`
`(veca xx (veca xx (-4vecb)))`
` -4 (veca xx (veca xx vecb))`
` -4 ((veca xx vecb) veca - (veca.veca)vecb)`
` -4 (-4vecb) = 16 vecb = 48 vecb`
